    I might get a Dell D620 engraved with a famous quote. I do not think I am going to engrave a picture on it. What is the best place to get it engraved?

    Go to skinit.com a great alternative to engraving... Plus you can customize to make it exactly what you want!

    Check your yellow pages for engraving.

    Another thing to look for is someplace that does laser cutting. If you have a shop in town that laser cuts they can etch it for you. I highly recommend a test piece if they have not etched anything before.

    Everyone before you go to the website or yellow pages. Look how they do it. Miroblasting aka sandblasting. Dremal or lasier.
