You can have a roll of your own labels printed up by a local print shop.
They can come in a roll as small as 100 labels. If this is just for one
computer you built for yourself, I have seen other options:
1) Create a small logo that you like with a graphics program. Print it onto
a simple adhesive label, (the Avery type). Cut it to fit and stick it on.
2) Intel CPUs come with a small, metallic adhesive decal that sticks right
into this spot. I use this method for systems I build.
3) Large office supply stores have a myriad of small adhesive ornamental
decals you can buy. Typically, these do not have anything to do with
computing, at least I have never seen one that does.
I hope this helps.
Along the lines of customizing a system, we have a great little application
on The NOSPIN Group file download page: OEM INFO v3
This application allows you to quickly and easily add your own graphical
logo to Win95/98 My Computer/properties area. It also allows you to name
the computer, the model of the computer and add the Support Information
button for pertinent information.
