Apple’s sense of humor: BSOD icon in Leopard

Tuesday, Jun. 26 2007 | Author: Griffith

Although Apple is usually seen as an easy going company they certainly aren’t saints. Or at the very least they’re saints with a sense of humor. In Leopard, when you’re trying to connect to a Windows computer, if you notice carefully you’ll see that the icon is actually a screenshot of the “Blue Screen of Death” that certainly, all Windows users are familiar with.

Gross generalization there. I haven’t seen a BSOD in a good 5 years or so. The last I remember seeing was at University, and I graduated in 2001.

I guess it’s amusing in an Apple Fanboy way though.

For some reason, that’s not the blue screen of death that I see when my PC craps out on me. Mine’s more cryptic. But oh well, I still think it’s funny.
