OS X Uses BSOD As PC Server Icon

I, personally, laughed aloud when I opened the “info” window for a PC server I was connected to yesterday.

BSOD!

The oh-so-familiar blue and white pattern that appears on that clunky, beige CRT monitor seals the deal on one of the cockiest inside jokes I’ve seen from the Apple developers yet. Good game!

    “The oh-so-familiar blue and white pattern”. Kinda reminds me of the oh-so-familiar “sad face” icon I used to see when my Mac crashed all the time, except that one didn’t contain a speck of information to help me resolve the problem. Good game indeed.

    Happily for all involved, I haven’t seen the BSOD or the Mac crash screen in years. Windows improved stability by requiring 3rd party drivers to undergo testing and certification, and Mac threw their entire O/S in the trashcan and replaced it with arguably one of the best OSes ever written.
