I had slapped on the QNX theme on my iBook (no more) so it had a diff boot splash.

No prob. I can honestly feel my GUI a little snappier with a different theme on it, such as QNX.

(I know that line above sounds a little dirty, but it is not. I'm only making this disclaimer for a "certain-someone's" sake O2)

hey

do you think a little article about changing the boot panel would be good fodder for LWD?
I have never written an article for this site - so I wouldn't be crushed If I were told to forgo the project.

or is the boot panel one of those no brainer things that everyone figures out and I am just wholeheartedly excited because I'm usually so technically lost?

WEEEEE -

PS. Heyyyyy - we could ALL make these custom boot panels - and and
post them so people can have them... AND AND

RULE THE WORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRLD!

That *IS* how it works.... right?

Yes. Definitely. You could teach people how to replace their OSX boot logo with the standard Windows 2000 one. Twisted Evil

Nor had I, until the first time I did it.

Gotta start somewhere.... come on in, the water's lovely!

By the sound of it the method isn't as baroque as it is for Windows, but not everyone will be aware of it.

if this were slashdot i'd say:


  1. Change the boot logo.
  2. Teach others how to change the boot log.
  3. ???
  4. Profit.
