World’s largest Windows error message
May 15, 2006 at 1:56 pm | In Uncategorized | Leave a CommentWe went down to New York for the long weekend. Despite the 16-degree weather, we walked down to Times Square – all the bright lights lured us the ten blocks from our hotel. When we got there, we stood like, well, tourists, gaping at all the electronic billboards. And then, across the square, I saw it: the world's largest Windows error message – on a two-story high e-billboard (I guess everything really is bigger in New York). It was the only billboard in the entire square with absolutely no movement – since the PC running it had obviously frozen. …Adja !!!! That's another reason I luv the *nix. In the *nix world, I can bump into kernel panics when I do kernel hacking but it's nothing compared to this gigantic ERR_MSG displayed on a billboard on Time Square…;)
And…this posting on the website of networkworld.com has launched a serious and heated discussion. I read it the other day and I was just dead laughing. Please check out the discussion thread here ( http://www.networkworld.com/community/?q=node/4630#comment )
