All that paint is going to make a mess. You can get an RGB keyboard (like mine), an RGB wrist pad for the keyboard, an RGB mouse, an RGB pad for under the mouse, RGB speakers. It can be quite a light show. My office has XMAS lights running around the ceiling, one desk lamp, and the glowing keyboard. Oh, yeah, forgot the glowing speakers (not RGB, just color changing lights). I'm sort of maxed out on glowing lights. -- Dan Espen
