Thanks for making this video! I used your video to discover where the button was. Its scary that it is easier to find on YouTube than it is on the Apple site.
If it weren't for your video I would have actually had to call help desk...! Lol. My imac at home has the power button on the right, but the brand new one at work has it on the left side. Thanks for sharing!
This is stupid! I'm (house sitting) at my friends house, and he has one of these things...there is no obvious button that says "ON" I tried every button on the keyboard, pressed the apple logo on the screen, felt all around the edges of it, in the most obvious places for "ON", pressed the mouse, looked underneath...
I don't care if it's obvious to MaC users...this is stupid design....I literally wasted an hour of my life...

What you do is... talk to it in a quiet, relaxed tone of voice, letting your pitch get a little deeper (without being obvious)... and you can make casual contact with its hand, or thigh, and move a little closer, making lots of eye contact... you'll get the hang eventually.
Don't feel too bad. I started out with mac, but I've been using a pc for the past 6 years. I got the imac for Christmas and I came to YouTube hoping to find a tutorial. Thanks for posting your experience. I just turned my Mac on for the first time. I received it 3 days ago. LOL!
Macs used to have a key to turn them on from the keyboard. I spent $6000 in 1989, largely for that feature. Well, that, and you couldn't pay me to use a Windows machine prior to Win2k.
But it wouldn't have helped you here since the symbol on the power on key was just a cryptic triangle.
Hey we all got to laugh at ourselves once in a while. I find its one of the few things that keeps me sane. Oh and your not the only one who has mac troubles. I can't go near any apple product save for my ipod without it crashing. No joke
It's kind of a silly thing to lie about don't you think? I'm FAR too busy to make up stories like that. You may wish to consider asking questions to clarify the information you have before being so quick to make such judgments.
Haw Haw!!!! That was good nightowl! too funny.... You will love your mac BTW. I got a macbook pro 3 weeks ago and love it. I run windows on it too. works great
And I'm the computer literate one in the household. This has been a bizarre experience. They definitely have a unique design and concept. It will be fun to see how my future videos develop with the mac though.
This is funny because it could easily be me. It's not, for which I'm grateful, so I get to laugh at her rather than myself. Plus, she's around my age, with glasses and hot, but sadly married, well, not married and sad, but, y'know, unavailable. This has convinced me not to buy a Mac.
Wheres the button

This was actually very fun and I laughed so hard... (no offence.)
Actually, my dad would probably do the same thing on his 'quest' for the power button... :D

If you actually watched the video, I told you I bought the mac from my father in law. it was the first time "I" turned it on. Why so skeptical?
