I know *exactly* what you mean. That black on silver compaq finish means it stands out like anything once you know it's there...
If you seriously need it fixed, a good porcelain restorer can do an invisible repair, though it will be costly. It is any help, customers and others are far less likely to see it than you ;-)
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
