- TGMD, on 11/04/2007, -292/+634Pretty childish of Apple, would've been more funny oh 8 years ago.
- lordtyros, on 11/04/2007, -40/+321Yeah, that beige monitor and blue screen are so windows 98.
- bradallen18, on 11/01/2007, -24/+292this has been in all the betas too. and was posted along time ago.
- Spartan225, on 11/01/2007, -117/+344HAHAHAHA that is pretty funny....
- LoganT, on 11/01/2007, -41/+175Oh shut the ***** up and get a sense of humor.
- TGMD, on 11/04/2007, -28/+136Yes! That's when they stopped, After XP if you got a BSOD it's because of your hardware.
I've had kernal panics in OSX and Linux as well, all due to bad hardware.
The stereotypical PC bluescreening all the time is a thing of Windows 9x, I don't know why it's being brought up all the time
(Linux fanboy by the way) - drlha, on 10/26/2007, -7/+99Would you rather they disable Coverflow for just servers? Would that make you happy? Sure Coverflow makes sense for some things, and doesn't for others - that's why its a viewing *option*.
- stalefries, on 10/29/2007, -20/+110Gotta love the attention to detail.
On a different note, that David Perek guy has a lot of stuff in his menubar. - richardhenry, on 11/01/2007, -85/+169The world needs more subtle comedy. Besides, it's what people associate with a PC!
- PabloMac, on 11/01/2007, -61/+135"Pretty childish of Apple, would've been more funny oh 8 years ago."
Because that's when BSODs stopped occurring? - inactive, on 10/28/2007, -5/+73Even Halo (by Bungie, owned by MS while making these games) has had a BSOD hidden somewhere:

http://www.flickr.com/photos/14120251@N04/14367045 ... Halo 2 - WhiteRaven, on 10/28/2007, -18/+81Well, I've never had a BSOD in XP so what's your point?
- inactive, on 11/01/2007, -7/+68...Literally.
- camaroz06, on 10/30/2007, -77/+128I have NEVER come across a BSOD unless it was to my own doing (overclocked CPU too much). Honesty I have wasted more of my time looking at the friggin mac pinwheel of death to stop spinning on my girlfriends iBook, damn that thing slowed down my productivity by 25%.
- 1of42, on 10/27/2007, -64/+115Uhh, no, it's what YOU associate with a PC.
- ocellnuri, on 10/28/2007, -15/+62I'll have to update my iMac icon so it has a Kernel Panic on the screen... to be fair.
- jolt459, on 11/01/2007, -29/+73Haha. Have to love Apples subtle humor...
Even know I do not own a Mac, I find this funny. - arcticblue, on 10/28/2007, -19/+60I thought this was pretty funny myself, but checking out the comments here tells me alot of people are overly butt-hurt about it. Where did everyone's sense of humor go?
Some people just can't take a joke. - KingLeo, on 10/27/2007, -28/+68That's funny. The launch of Leopard is one of the most anticipated events it seems. You gotta give props to Apple for developing such customer loyalty (and fanboyism) that no other company has been able to accomplish (except one other I can think of).
- evilic0n, on 11/01/2007, -49/+88Easter egg? I thought that was a real screenshot of a windows computer.
- ifm1989, on 10/28/2007, -0/+36Subtle? Right...
- arcticblue, on 10/29/2007, -17/+53Jeez dude. Did Apple hit a sore spot?
- corporalclegg24, on 10/29/2007, -10/+40uhm
why even write a comment that large for this haha - deadbaby, on 11/01/2007, -13/+42Sure it's childish. What's wrong with that? It's funny. I don't know why Windows users take it so personally.
- Aggaman, on 10/27/2007, -20/+49I guess it is sort of true. However, the good news for Windows fanboys is that I had an OS X kernel panic this morning. The bad news for Windows fanboys is that it is the first one I've had since 2001 and OS 10.0. Damn Apple and their POS unreliable operating system.
- DarkDx, on 11/01/2007, -5/+30Hey, very nice shine in the screen!
Oh wait... - silverwolfe, on 10/26/2007, -4/+28Nintendo, duh.
- posure, on 10/28/2007, -17/+41Its what *Mac* users associate with Windows. The only XP crashes I ever had were caused by either: PSU dying, hard drives dying, or World of Warcraft (damn Blizzard). OS X crashes include: Random kernel panics from too much load, unplugging my USB mouse.
- wrenchone, on 10/29/2007, -6/+30If that's true, shouldn't there be a game on the screen?
- sgtbutterscotch, on 10/27/2007, -4/+27Dude, what does mine say?
- idiotwithastick, on 10/26/2007, -11/+34If by people you mean "the Digg community," then you might be right...
I think most people are more likely to associate applications like IE, Firefox, or Word with their PCs than the "famous" BSOD... - Laughto, on 10/26/2007, -2/+25Yeah but it's pretty cool this is carrying over to the actual release
- Godlike, on 10/27/2007, -13/+36Yeah, you could do the same thing with an apple but it's pretty hard to take an easily recognizable screen shot of a machine thats mouse that has stopped responding to motion input and makes a 'dink' sound every time that you click it, and then never displays an error message at all.
- heynoop, on 10/26/2007, -12/+34wow! i have totally never seen this on digg before. nope not ever. never seen it this is totally new and original go digg yay
- lkv87, on 10/27/2007, -6/+28On a different note; how ugly is that transparent menu bar when you use anything in a full screen mode !
- heynoop, on 10/28/2007, -1/+23haha, that magical pinwheel was spinning right when i dugg you up. it knows.......
- pintomp3, on 10/27/2007, -4/+25blackwater?
- DarkDx, on 10/26/2007, -2/+22That isn't stopping you from using it in images folders.
- bigjimslade, on 11/01/2007, -21/+39Maybe they can educate us Windows users who haven't seen one of those in years? Imagine if Windows would show a new iMac that was frozen...Oh, they wouldn't do that.
Before you say anything, I'm buying a Mac this week. It's crap like this that makes me thing I'm being conned by childish marketing. - thesmrt12004, on 10/27/2007, -4/+22nope.... its a feature
- firstpost, on 10/27/2007, -4/+21That's because it is a blue screen joke.
- MrPig, on 10/26/2007, -1/+18"Bad driver" and "bad hardware" usually go hand-in-hand. If you write a "perfect" driver it should be able to handle any "crap-out" of the hardware - unless it's some critical piece of hardware... then you'd be lucky to even get a BSoD.
- natenovs, on 10/30/2007, -1/+18note. VMs install device drivers. thats how they work.
- Dantc, on 10/28/2007, -6/+22Haha, what a ***** dork.
- LeeSoong, on 10/26/2007, -1/+17Purchasing a Sony VAIO - your first mistake,
not returning it - your second mistake.
Hating Apple, still free ! - bruce42, on 11/01/2007, -87/+103is it just me ... or is that the dumbest thing ever ....
why do i need coverflow to move through a list of servers.... when all the images are the same?
seems pointless to me. - Boomer7491, on 10/26/2007, -3/+19Get dumbing? Looks like its working already.
- KibibyteBrain, on 10/26/2007, -7/+22I have panics and BSODs due to software, including OS code, on all three of the before mentioned platforms. Come on people this is a subtle joke. Don't try to make too much sense of it. This was in the betas too but I find it amazing it survived release. Just a bit of fun between two competitors. Really I think digg members on both sides of the fence are taking this more personally than the companies involved!
- andy78, on 10/27/2007, -0/+15windows 85? people where lined up at midnight for 10 years?
- JohnFrum, on 10/27/2007, -1/+15In answer to ??? from crazybrit. The blue screen they show is a Win98 style blue screen.
