Via El Reg, Richard Chirgwin asks [theregister.co.uk] if anyone has seen a dramatic failure of MSFT's OS. One assumes that he is referring to very public instances.

In Topper [dilbert.com] style, he starts off with a real beauty [archive.li][1] that was spotted in Thailand.

In the comments [theregister.co.uk], cornz 1 mentions seeing every screen at Schiphol Airport (Amsterdam) BSoD'd; Shadow Systems says he had to go to the other side of town when his branch bank's ATM BSoD'd; Robert Helpmann wasn't thrilled when the hotel elevator that was to take him up 20something storeys was showing a BSoD; James 51 also notes that Blue Screens are not a thing of the past, as his wife's Windows 10 update BSoD'd.

Hat tips to TechWorm [techworm.net] (though I wish you wouldn't put parts of your content behind scripts) and to Archive.is (which will run scripts for you on their machines).
