BSOD Makes Appearance at Olympic Opening Ceremonies
Whiteox writes "A BSOD was projected onto the roof of the National Stadium during the grand finale to the four-hour spectacular at the Olympics. Lenovo chairman Yang Yuanqing chose to go with XP instead of Vista because of the complexity of the IT functions at the Games. His comment on Vista? 'If it's not stable, it could have some problems,' he said. Evidently Bill Gates attended the opening ceremony, so he must have witnessed it."

I get this screen when my old Dell expiron overheats.
Poor old thing can't manage a virus scan and a Web Page at the same time.
Given the ROCs forgiven and humanetarian nature I wonder which Sysadmin will be donating his internal organs to the Bill and Melissa marketing foundation?
Old COBOL programmers never die. They just code in C.
Yes, I know.... It's been a very long time. I don't know why. It might have to do with my user name. (That said, my other user name doesn't get any modpoints either)
Oh, well... I'm not complaining.
I was also more hinting to the fact that you can't get modded past the 5 points for a post, but I should have formulated it differently.
it's patch tuesday children - patch IMMEDIATELY children !! if not, you will be wishing for years to come that you had, or that you used linux !! PATCH, Dammit !! PATCH NOW !!
ROTFLMAO....

Where do you people get your education from? Cereal boxes?
The line you're after is "Given the ROC's forgiving and humanitarian nature..."
I also count rogue capitals W, P and S (since when are "web page" and "sysadmin" proper nouns?) and a name mistake (Bill's wife is Melinda).
I'll excuse "Dell expiron" and assume that was a joke, playing on the fact the laptop in question is, in fact, expirin'.
I hate printers.
