It depends on what the customer wanted the computer for.

If it was to be something that's a workhorse that stays pushed back into a
corner, you'd want it to be something that doesn't stand out and doesn't need
care.

If it was to be something you wanted people to notice when they walked into
your office, then you wanted it to be a "flashy" color and you'd spend the time
keeping it clean.
