John,

Can't be red.  That was also the color of one of the generations of 9672
boxes.  Gen 5 I believe???  I think our model R16 had the red stripe.

I think the official color of our z9-BC is periwinkle??  My CE prefers
to call it "tinky-winky purple".  I still think IBM should have put in a
sealed water tube behind the purple stripe and ran a bubbler through it,
like an old-time jukebox!

How about Red?  Oops; sorry, that was "Amdahl's color".  :-)
