Here's something similar I used for a while in bash.
The colors should probably be toned down.

PS1="\[\033[33;40;1m\] \u \[\033[37;40;1m\]\t\[\033[0m\]\[\033[33;40;1m\] \$PWD/ \[\033[0m\]\[\033[37;40;1m\]\d \[\033[0m\]\n\[\033[35;35;1m\]$ \[\033[0m\]"
PS2="\[\033[35;35;1m\]> \[\033[0m\]"

# 32 = green
# 33 = yellow
# 34 = blue
# 35 = magenta
# 36 = cyan
# 37 = white
# 38 = ** crashes xterm **
# 40 = black
