System Status and Operation Indicators

Ok... I'm jealous... I want this too geek additions at last.fm's control center. We have laptops with displays of our paging system on the screens, but no light up bears!!!  Now, how would you work a budget change proposal request to include a system that would light plastic toys during system/network outages as necessary purchase.  Illuminated plastic molded ursus arctos horribilis indicators for system status indication perhaps??? : )
