Turn on Mac Pro (Cylinder)

Is there any way to turn on the Mac Pro (cylinder version) without having to press the hidden power button in the furthest corner of the device?


Its no secret that apple products are notoriously lacking in the physical user interface experience, but I was wondering if there is any chance I can get around having to press the inconvenient little button to turn the device on.


I’ve checked online, but it looks like this device has the same name as every other Mac (nice naming convention apple) with the only delineation being that it happens to be cylindrical. Finding answers anywhere but Reddit has proven to be difficult.


This is mostly a criticism. Please do better.

All Mac's have the option to Automatically Sleep or Manually Sleep from the drop down menu.

The idea work around is to just leave it on and allow the Display(s) to turn off after 10 or 15 minutes.
