"Problems for server farms and accessory makers"??  The old Mac Mini was ~85in^3 and the new one is only 50in^3.  That's a *HUGE* improvement for rack mount solutions.  But oh noes!  I might have to buy a new $500 mounting kit to house my $10,000 worth of Mac Minis!

And as for accessory makers, incompatibility with existing accessories is a good thing for them too.  People who upgrade will have to buy new accessories instead of keeping what they have.

It's kinda bad for consumers, but a lot of people who had such accessories might not even need them any more now that Apple finally seems to be coming to their senses and putting ports on the front of some Macs.  And some of them might appreciate the smaller size, as well.

Yeah, it doesn't matter at all when you're gaming - especially in a multi-player game, and your mouse dies unexpectedly.  The 39 other people in your raid will be happy to wait while you get a coffee after the wipe you caused...

The port on the bottom has always been a dumb idea.  Even if they're hell-bent on aesthetics over usability, it looks ridiculous flipped upside down with a cable sticking out of the bottom.  And it's especially unnecessary in the era of wireless charging where you could put a charger in the mousepad itself.  At least include some sort of charging stand to keep it topped off when you're not using it.

"1.  Ensure the Apple Watch is charged to at least 50% and connected to Wi-Fi"

The directions in my Settings app say nothing about being at 50%, but instead says the watch has to be on a charger.  I think the 50% thing is the instruction for iPhone updates.
