    I think silver looks tacky.. ofcourse I am meaing silver paint as metal finnishes are not silver - alu looks nothing like silver.
    Silver plating would look uber, and doesnt cost much, but for that you need a case made of a metal closer to silver, alu wouldnt work. steel might but I cant remember.
    I like clear annodised brused alu finnishes a lot though (for example my lianli pc70 )
    I think black would also look good but it would be a pita getting everything black, however Im wishing I got the black pc70 as my psone screen is mounted in the front, and it being black, looks odd.

    Bl00 is teh w1n though and given chioce I would have got a bbl00 annniodised pc70.

    Efaill - edging has got to be the most tacky thing ever invented, tbh. If your going to cut a hole, do it proeprly and you wont need to use edging

    hmm... might buy more string today and have an england flag made of string stuck on the window - heh that would be better than the flags on cars
