BSOD's happen...

Snapped this shot out of my car as I was driving down the Strip this afternoon...

BSOD's happen to everyone, but not everyone's happen on 20 foot screens viewable by thousands of people...

There is an arguement that both pictures are photoshop jobs, I believe the 1st one is real, however the other one seems to be fake.

EDIT: Too tired to talk..... *falls over and starts snoring*

When I was 15, I worked on a tech company.
One of the products was this nifty 'kiosk' like machine... small, and self-contained.
It had touchscreen, feed-scanner, fingerprint reader, etc. ,etc.

One of the prototypes I went to install with one of the engineers at a local bank. So we did our installation, tied all the other loose ends... and we shall be back tomorrow to see how it did.

Well, I couldn't stop laughing, and neither could the engineer (!!) when we arrived the next day.
Apparently, either by a pop-up message, glitch, or ingenuity, they got to the "Start" button.
Smartly, they opened... Paint.
There where, like 20 different drawings in paint, all done with the touchscreen (no kb/mouse)... LMAO

That same machine, they 'tasked' me with "testing" it in the office.
So amongst the very first things I did was (:D :D), I fed it a check (cheque?), but fed it lengthwise.
Ok, as it started coming out the exit slot, I just took it, and re-inserted it into the input slot. So instead of one 6-10" piece of paper, the computer was scanning loops, and loops, and loops.
She didn't crash for 10 minutes... so I just headed out to lunch.
When we came back.... obviously she had crashed.
She tried to reboot, but was unable.
We tried to reboot her, but were unable.
We ended up just wiping that hdd copying the desired hdd image again.
After that incident, I was "Da Man" to go to for testing. LoL

Thanks for fixing it for me. Stupid bravehost. Time to find a new host...

And yeah, bsod aint that big any more, but it had us giggling. And we had the camera in the car, stuck in stop n go traffic, so why not take the pic.

Heck, even my 13 year old daughter knew what a bsod was and giggled insanely.
