You were perfectly clear.
Select rows 1 to 100 then FormatConditional Formatting
Condition1Formula is =MOD(SUBTOTAL(3,$A1:$A$2),2)=0 one color
Add............
Condition2Formula is =MOD(SUBTOTAL(3,$A1:$A$2),2)=1 another color
You will get alternating row colors down to row 100.
one color
another color
one color...........same as row 1
another color...........same as row 2
etc.

BUT ALL THOSE ANSWERS GIVEN UNDER THIS HEAD COLOURS THE ENTIRE SHEET WITH ONE

WITH TWO SEPERATE COLOURS ?? (I TRIED THE SAME WITH ADDITION OF THE
CONDITION IN CONDITIONAL FORMATING AND THE SAME FORMULA, BUT IT DOEN NOT
WORK) WHY ??

If you won't be filtering the data use the other suggestions.
If you will be filtering use this formula in CFFormula
=MOD(SUBTOTAL(3,$A1:$A$2),2)=0
