    Anyone added any badges (those computer stickers) to their notebooks? Or used anything else to personalize?

    I never have, probably never will. The computer I use for work is a Vaio so the engraved Vaio on the chassis says it all. For some users, such as myself, it's hard to balance out personalization with looking professional. Somehow I don't think a picture of a barrel of a gun would sit well in a corporate meeting. Then again, maybe it'll help get my points across...[} :)]

    True, though our notebook won't be used for business or work.

    I like to keep my laptop looking classy and not putting cheesey stickers on it. If you have badges that are nice looking and appeal to you, I suppose it is a good way to express yourself.

    I took all the stickers off...I prefer the more subtle look. Besides, it's not a NASCAR. That is...unless Microsoft wants to pay me to have their stickers on my notebook!

    Hey, to each his own. Some people like to mod their stuff, give it character and such. I don't really know any sites off hand that sell badges, but if u find any post them.

    jinx.com has some intersting stuff. Also, try a google search for "wardriving sticker" if you are into that. I love the sticker action and since mine isnt for business, but instead my portable jukebox, DVD player, wardiving machine, its gotta have the "look" [} :)]
