Personally I'm not particularly bothered by it, but if it would be replaced with a clean, sleek and modern looking "Booting *hax" kind of screen with a nice logo that would be much much better. Heck if it supports a form of animated image (not per se gif/gifv) .. now THAT would be great. We could even potentially start a whole "custom *hax bootup images" thread.
But that's just me thinking and hoping
