I was surprised to find some of my leftover photos on the Internet today, including some of a Dell GX150 I repainted a couple of years ago before selling it on ebay.
I figured after disassembling one machine earlier today, I might as well re-link to those photos and enjoy the nostalgia.
That particular machine was very flexible for a small-form-factor desktop computer. I know these were originally marketed for the business sector, but with a proper upgrade or two they were no less usable than most of the machines I have now. (Of course, most of the machines I have now are … the same. 
)
I don’t remember how much money I made off it, but I know I turned a handsome profit.
Two cans of paint, a few hours of time and a hobby that makes your bank account grow. Even more so, if you have any artistic ability. In light of the current economic situation, it might be something to consider. 
One word for it:
Awesome.
Cheers and Merry Christmas!
Cool! Sexy!
If I may ask, is that just regular old spray paint or some kind of specialty paint?
There could be a custom paint job in the future for my Dell 4700.
That was Krylon Fusion, if I remember right. It’s designed to bond to plastic and cures to a sheen, which makes it perfect. With other paints you’d have to add a coat to get a shine, but this stuff is my favorite for repainting projects. Scrub liberally, dry thoroughly, paint in clean and even strokes on a clear and windless day, cure over a day or two and reassemble. It’s like a new computer.
