The Microsoft SCCM 2007 OSD engineering team have also made  a post on how to utilize BGInfo.exe from the Sysinternals Suite in OSD.
BGInfo can be used to give end-users a stylish and informative background-screen that will show the user whats going on right now and where in the overall OSD process the machine is at this time.
