Apple’s BSOD Easter Egg
I work as a Microsoft guy by day where my tasks involve setting up and maintaining Windows Servers and the occasional Cisco device. I see the Windows Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) at least once a week. It’s a very common occurrence and is the default screen for many system errors both hardware and software.
Apple has improved Windows file sharing in their new operating system but not without cracking a joke at the BSOD. If you’re viewing Apple computers on a network, you’ll see a gorgeous aluminum Apple LCD screen. However, just below the Apple share is a big beige CRT monitor (you know the old monitors that were long and contained tons of harmful chemicals). To top if all off, Apple decided to throw a BSOD on the Windows monitor.
The result, an old school beige CRT monitor with an obvious blue screen of death each time you want to connect to a Windows network share. Everything thought this would be removed in the final build of Leopard but it continues to live on as a nice little joke for all Mac users. Via Via
