And reply to this is even more amusing :-)

===============================================

Yea, we don't want no slick and shiny boot screens. After all this is
the 
OS for true men (and women), people who have witnessed the rise of the 
transistor. Or maybe this is a nasty trick from the marketing department
to 
get at big company buyers, reminding them of those happy drunken nights
in 
front of a 64K machine when one had time to kill a sixpack while the
soft 
loaded from tapes.

Have you noticed that mdk is so fond of that screen that they extended 
default boot timeout to 10s?
