The Decepticons had supposedly been vanquished in the highly successful 2007 Transformers, but here the bad robots all were again, invigorated anew. It seems someone forgot to sweep up after that movie's climax, leaving a shard of the precious knowledge-giving Cube on the clothing of teenage hero Sam Witwicky (Shia LaBeouf).

...that's just a simple mouse: Apple has waged similar battles with each of its product lines. 2000's G4 Cube desktop computer was released with a touch-sensitive area to turn on the computer, eschewing the power button. The latest MacBook laptops remove buttons from the trackpad entirely; users click either with a tap of the finger or by pressing the entire trackpad down. The first iPod had five buttons; the current iPod Touch and iPhone have just two. Apple's even expanding the battlefield to its stores - the elevator in the Tokyo Apple Store has no buttons...
