I saw a demo of some software from Silicon Beach about a year ago,
and as the guy booted his mac (ie, before the demo) his inits showed
up in this sort of window that allowed him to select which ones to
run.  Now, I've seen an init which allows you to bring up a list of
your inits and select which ones to run, but that was not what this
guy used.  The software he had put all of the icons up on the screen,
in rows of about 8 across.  I think he could click on the ones he
wanted to load, or just continue by default.  I'm not sure.

Has anyone seen this?  Maybe it was some sort of Silicon Beach internal
hack or something?  I dunno.
