White. I prefer none and usually have them off, but they are nice when friends come over and want to see the internals. I just switch them on, give a glance, then shut them back off.

+ 1 That's the only real time I like to use them, even more so as I'm pretty much the only geek out of my friends so something as simple as some lighting makes all the difference to them

I'm currently using blue CCFL's and LED's sparsely in my computers. But, if I ever build another rig for myself, it's going to have a red theme

White or UV. At the time I made my current rig, I liked red. My new rig will have minimal lighting, and it will be white or UV if any.
