Green Dex-cool? Doubtful...

I've been researching coolants in preparation to replace my thermostat and flush the system. I've seen a couple 9-3s with reddish-orange coolant that I assume to be Dex-cool, but something that's green should be compatible with any other green coolant, which I understand Dex-cool not to be. Are you sure your mechanic isn't just using a universal green coolant that can be mixed with any brand or color, including Dex-cool? Companies like Peak and Prestone make universal coolants in both regular and long-life.
FWIW, after reading on this board, I've decided to replace my unknown green coolant with Zerex G-05. I guess I'll soon find out what color it is, LOL.
