The Google Mini is a 1U rack mountable box painted bright blue. The Google logo is on top, which will be hidden if the unit is actually installed into a rack.

The rear of the Mini has a full PC complement of ports but you only use three–the AC and two network connections. One of the network connections requires a special cable provided by Google (the orange one in this photo) to connect to a laptop for IP configuration.

Even the user manual and the rack mounting brackets are the same bright blue color as the Mini itself.

The real prize in the Google Mini is the coveted Google t-shirt that comes included in the box.
