The illuminated power on/off button is placed on the top front angle of Acer Aspire Revo R3600 body (in upright position). Right beside it we find a USB port (hidden by white rubber cap):

The front panel provides access to an eSata port, card reader, headphones/microphone jacks garnished by the inevitable brand stickers:

The bottom is shared by an opening for cooling purposed and mount for the desk stand:

The rest of the expansion slots are on the back - HDMI, D-SUB5 monitor connector, LAN, 4 USB ports, power cable jack and a Kensington security lock

The top besides the cooling vent has a single USB port and a sticker boldly proclaiming the presence of NVIDIA ION inside the case:

Here is the cap we mentioned before, the one hiding the port besides the on/off button
