Contrary to popular belief, the new Mac Pro is closer in design to an aluminum beverage can than a trash can. (Not that there's anything wrong with trash cans—some of our favorite astromech droids are shaped like trash cans.)

The back side (if a cylinder can have a back side) contains the power button and electrical inlet, as well as a tidy array of ports:

3.5 mm speaker and headphone jacks

Four USB 3.0 ports

Six Thunderbolt 2 ports

Dual Gigabit Ethernet ports

HDMI 1.4 out

Looks like neither trash nor fixer can get in through the top of this bin. Time to investigate that enticing lock switch...
