    Interesting. I guess this is a good solution for those not fond of the all black.

    That actually looks really cool. I do like the idea that you can choose multiple colors for different parts of the laptop but unfortunately, they tack on more money for each option. If I had money to blow, I might use the service. Good option for those looking to paint their units.

    $450+ dollars to do this, are you kidding? At that point, you may as well just buy an XPS or Alienware and don't even worry about painting it.

    Yeah, this costs about as much as a Vostro itself.

    Wow, I wasn't aware of the price!

    I'd just do some mods on my own!

    Uhhhh...couldn't you just get an Inspiron in your choice of color for $25 more instead?

    I can't imagine being enough of a fashion victim to require a complete color match of a computer...

    ...this coming from a guy who's enthralled with his Spring Green Inspiron. :)

    That must be some expensive color. Can it actually be 450?

    Ugh.. I think it looks sick all white with the battery, and bottom jet black..

    If I could just buy the palm-rest, and LCD housing all painted white, I would.. lol
