Just a word about the color of the hardware case. A friend just bought a 
Telebit T2500 modem (incredible modem!) for his cube and it came with the
standard off-white type of color. We took it apart and he proceeded to
spray paint the case black. It looked fantastic when it was done! I was
thoroughly impressed.

He used an quick-drying, industrial-grade, flat black paint. The whole
process of new off-white modem to configured and running black modem took
somewhere around an hour.
