I was just looking at Safari and noticed that although the view for the
bookmarks has the first row white and the second colored, the view for the
Downloads window is the exact opposite! (first row colored, second white)

So Apple can't even be consistent with this in the same application.

Anyway, I've heard that the new Interface Builder for Panther allows you to
turn on alternate row coloring with the flip of a switch.
