And how exactly am I supposed to wake up my computer from sleep if the power button is inaccessible?

Poke your finger under the corner and push up. It doesn’t take a rocket surgen to figure out how they want you to hit this button. You can tell from their promo images that they designed the base to make the computer sit up enough for this.

I know macs can be configured to wake up on keyboard/mouse activity, but that makes them too easy to wake up on accident.

Why does it matter? It’s just gonna go back to sleep in 30 seconds if you don’t mess with it.
