with so much spare-time on my hands i couldnt avoid looking my computer
re-boot. when the big windows xp-logo appears with the "loading-bar"
underneath i discovered that the color of the "loading-blocks" had changed
from green to blue. why is that? i suppose that it have something about my
SP2-installation but why does that change the color. just a nice feature or
what?

Hi Olle,

SP2 gives all systems the same startup screen. You'll notice also that it no
longer says Home or Pro on it as well.

"The change reduces the test matrix and uses more common code across all Windows XP derivatives."
