I bought a MACASE this year, and while the filter at the front is great, there is only one power switch at the front which turns the computer on, but not off. Nor does it reset. Then on the back is the power switch. The computer turns itself off, but you have to turn the power off at the back as well. If you don't, the battery runs dead. I terms of ergonomics, I prefer a on/off switch for the power on the front, along with a reset button. I should have got an AOPEN.
