Not acrylic paint, that's for damned sure.  Now whenever I touch my new 
silver 8500, I end up with silver hands.  Spray paint works well, but I 
would recommend auto (enamel-based) paint whenever possible.  Check out 
your local car supply shop.

Of course, once you've got the paint down, you're probably gonna want to 
pimp it out even more.  My 8500 has grilles on both sides, which would 
make an internal cold cathode light really spectacular.  Or maybe cut a 
window in the right side after that in the shape of the Apple logo, 
exposing the back of the motherboard to the world, bathed in a nice blue 
light.  Ooh yeah.

Almost every PC mod can be done to a Mac, you'll just have to be more 
creative given that Macs really aren't meant to be modded and pimped out 
like any non-store-bought PC.
