The comment color is based on the "track change" color for insertions
(selected in Tools | Options | Track Changes). If you don't like pink,
then change the color for insertions to something other than red.

Is there a way to change the colors of comment bubbles? In Word 2000, the
highlights are yellow. In Word 2004 for Mac they're blue. But in Word 2003,
they show up as pink. And I loathe pink.
