Soften it up with some hot water then peel it off slowly.

Also the Akasa TIM Remover is the exact same stuff as Betterware sell under the name of Sticky Stuff Remover, so if you have some of that, it would help too.
 
What I did was first get a hairdryer and heat up the sticker then straight after remove it. Any residue left can be easily removed with an eraser (pencil eraser).

Might sound a bit stupid but it gets rid of the residue

Wont that melt the plastic?

I honestly don't know why people put stickers on, they look very tacky.

They only look tacky if you go overboard, or put them in the wrong place.


Could you just put the Windows 7 sticker over the top of the Vista sticker?

I thought of that but there not the same size
 
This is going to sound really stupid and camp but... Avon Skin So Soft. It does everything but make your skin soft.

You've got us all a bit worried now, and i'm not even going to ask how you know that.

done this before getting the crap off from the stickers they put on lap tops and the best thing was peel what you could have the sticker off, usually leaving that sticky residue then use a little WD40 sprayed onto a cloth rubbing into the residue and it just disappears like magic. Use a dry cloth to rmove the smears and it looks like new.

Didn't we just see this case in the "show us your badges" thread

I guess you're having a change of heart about the whole "look what's inside" thing

Yeah thats right, actually its the same pic too, couldnt be bothered to take anothe pic.

The inside of my case looks quite tidy aswel,, a lot of ppl would think Im crazy buying a win7 sticker, but I just think it finishes things off.

to cover the antec 900 :P

peel the sticker off with your fingers then deal with the residue. heating it up, water etc etc are not going to make a blind bit of difference. I use panel wipe / wax and grease remover (product intended for painters) to get such residue off, but said 'sticky stuff remover' works in the same way.

alcohol works to a fashion, but nowhere near as effective as afore mentioned products.
