Computers should be black and white, like badgers.
Or possibly covered in flowers (http://www.vectronicsappleworld.com/pics/macintosh/imac/flow2.jpg).
Also, it would be ace cool if you could get computers which CHANGED COLOUR like all those cubes and lights and things that they sell on iwantoneofthose.com.
Well, that could make expanding your PC both simpler and more literal.
Unfortunately, with current technology it's easy to see when the machine's full; with inflatable PCs you'd get lots of cases of PCs bursting when people tried to sneak in just one more hard drive.
The carton of the Dabs value PC case I just bought has tickyboxes on the outside to show what's inside. One of them is labelled "PC colour". (Beige, since you ask.)
LEDs good, provided they flash on and off in a manner which conveys some potentially useful information. LEDs blinking just for effect, or not blinking at all, not so good.
(Hmm. "Blinkenlights, not blingenlights"? Perhaps not.)
Depends where they are. The LEDs on my NAS box mean I no longer need a separate nightlight on the landing. (One is "I have power", one is "I can see my network connection", so neither blinks in normal use.)

Or global hypercolour computers.
Or computers made of jam.
