I know this forum is for modifying the boot screen (not mocking it) but i figured if there is an audience here for this article, the people in this forum would be it.

Yeah, I've seen about that, too. Of course, I don't use the windows welcome screen to log on, I use the secure method with the Win2K style dialog, and since I have account lockout policies enabled, the welcome screen wouldn't work because a user would get locked out after trying to log on only 5 times.
