XP/2003 Trick - Bootlogo boot.ini switch

This is cool! Mark Russinovich just "discoverd" a new boot.ini switch for winXP and 2003.

/BOOTLOGO

Use this switch to have Windows XP or Windows Server 2003 display an installable splash screen instead of the standard splash screen. First, create a 16-color (any 16 colors) 640x480 bitmap and save it in the Windows directory with the name Boot.bmp. Then add "/bootlogo /noguiboot" to the boot.ini selection.

Also I want to congratulate Mark on his MVP award, it's about time!
