Good old Windows reliability ;)

I was driving through my home town earlier today and noticed the local cinemas outdoor advertising screen had crashed.... Good old Windows!!! Check out the pic, it was stuck on "Windows is loading settings..."

I've got a series of pictures taken with my mobile of Windows BSODs on various things from bank machines to train timetable displays. Even got one from Singapore airport

Give him a break, it is not his fault his local Picture House has tried in vein to catch up with the rest of the world. Probably noticed it on his way to have burger and cigarettes at the local diner in his auto-mobile.

and his home town is significantly older than the 1950s lol, It's a mixture between Ancient Roman, Victorian and Peruvian slum.

LOL.
I was in a little tesco on the weekend and one of the "fast serve" tills was out of action. All of a sudden, the XP log off music played at a horrendous volume and a member of staff ran over and removed the "do not use" sign from it.
