Has anyone had any experience putting a cosmetic skin covering on their Mac mini? I assume this is just an aesthetic vanity thing but it has peaked my interest. I’ve seen such skins used on a variety of portable devices; phones, laptops, handheld game consoles. I see that they are now being offer for desktop macs (Mac mini, Mac Studio, iMac).

I was wondering is applying them difficult? (I tend to think it manageable), any interference with the ports?, interference with cooling? interference with BT or WiFi? Longevity?

Is sort of like the look of this retro style:

There appear to be a large variety of styles, from several suppliers.

I really wished they had ones for Dell monitors. I find the big black back of those monitors to be particularly unattractive. So far, I haven’t seen that as an available item.

Horrendous idea for an Intel mini, but might not have much effect on the power efficient AS mini
