The very notable exception to this in T:L though was the Sirens who welcomed Sam to the grid (and Zeus, but he was so blindingly annoying, I just ignore him). | |

| Jan 10, 2012 at 18:20 | comment | added | Xantec | @eidylon But Tron Legacy took place on The Grid 2.0, so Flynn was able to make the colors anything he wanted. Apparently he just really liked the non-color white (as evidenced by where he lived in the Grid) and so the second time when he got to pick his color he took white first. | |

I always figured Clu was just a random color, before the "good and bad" sides of the computer world has really been delved into yet. The inverse bike colors though always did puzzle me (which they "fixed" in TRON: Legacy).
