Comment 60 for bug 438335

I'm happy with it; as long as it's not there too long, think of it as
analogeous to the grey apple you get at the start of the Apple boot process.

Of course they're *way* ahead. That apple is the *first* thing you see
after power-on (unless you have rEFIt or something installed), and it
segues pretty gracefully to the blue desktop...
