I'm having a hard time find a place that will do it. Most of them are for commercial use.

I've actually done a custom paint job a few years ago. I don't have the equipment for anodizing aluminum. I'll just send it to you for a custom job.

I was thinking about it some more and if I can't get at least $3500 for one of the systems it's not worth trying to sell it. I'll probably end up returning the first one since it costs more.

Dell, and a few other manufacturers, are shooting themselves in the foot for coming out different models with small variations in such a short time frame.

Technically it will be 7 months. That's normal for this biz.

I have the paint and equipment to paint it correctly.

I was going for a green, I can have it all polished off and primmed ... I just need some of my heavy duty farm primer then I can use any paint.

If I don't like silver I may

Well it looks like I'll have to pick between blue, green and gold. All would look nice.
