It was bound to happen. With all this talk about Apple’s new-generation Mac Pro looking like a trash bin, someone finally decided to make little Mac Pro trash icons for OS X users looking to poke some fun at the expensive workstation.

Regarded as the new high-end status symbol by some, the Mac Pro (Late 2013) model is also likened to a trash can. Whether or not it looks like one, it remains for everyone to judge individually. If you like the idea of actually using its likeness to a Trash bin icon, there’s an easy way to customize your Dock to replace the stock Trash icon with a Mac Pro.

Download the Mac Pro icons created by jonathanHirz and follow the instructions in the zip file to replace the old files with the new ones. Then use Terminal to kill the Dock and you’ll soon be trashing files in your brand new virtual Mac Pro. Be careful to make a backup of your old Trash.png images before you do anything. You never know when you’ll need them back.
