Design help

So I'm looking for some ideas. I'm looking to make a standardized PC for employees that has custom Company branding.
I've no idea where to be putting this Logo, whether on a case badge, or stenciled on the side, maybe even a Vinyl. So let me know if you have any ideas, and I'll be putting together the first one shortly. This is especially for NTG employees, as if this works out, they may be getting these.

Powder coat

Powder Coat the logo on?
-
+1 for vinyl, on the Front, Top and side without air holes
-
The sides aren't so much a good place for anything, the side that would be prefferably used for that is mostly ventilation.
-
vinyl or airbrush the front/top as that's all youd see anyway
-
The top is all ventilation as well. Airbrush would be good, do you think I should use black, or the actual charcoal grey of the company logo?
-
you'd have to test it. black would show better, you could do some ghosting with the gray.
-
and if you airbrush, you could paint "over" the ventilation holes just tape off the back and make sure the mobo etc aren't in the PC at the time of painting
-
I've also been thinking maybe a stainless steel case badge on the front somewhere, similar to what some Graphics Cards come with. The side panels are removable, so that wouldn't be hard to do.
-
That coloring is very loud, and the case shape is very familiar. Did an older Mac Pro eat a streetracing honda?
Perhaps branded laptops may be more useful? That way, clients get to see the branding when folks are onsite.
-
Laptops would be something else to consider, thanks for idea! The idea for these is for home use though. The colors are just to match the company colors, and the design of the case is very supsiciously alike to a Mac Pro. It has handles for LAN Party utility, and feet because the power supply is meant to be oriented with the fan down, and the raised bottom is to give it proper ventilation.

Would anyone notice that? People just peel those off.

Much higher effort, much higher pay off

I mean the ones that you put on the outside of the case. The ones that people put on because they're fancy. I think Charcoal would look much better with that orange. As far as laptops? Not my department. I don't really see the viability of a custom laptop.
-
That's where the custom laptop skins with your own designs come into play. They also make them for tablet and smartphones.
-
I've considered Smartphone cases, but laptop skins just tend to get in the way.
-
How about a nice charcoal case with ntg.co in orange? That case is burning my eyeballs.
-
The only way to get a Charcoal case in that form factor is to paint it custom. If you think it's worth it. It's a matt coat so in person the orange isn't too bad.
