As a PC user I knows that BSOD is a famous irritant fer PC people an' source of amusement to the Applecores. But I ain't neber had no BSOD meself (yet--mercy be) an I does know two folks who recently had major system failures wif' they Apples.

Kymical!

Adopted chile o' mine, does Mama have issues?

Troll-Man,

heh..knock two woods, one fer each of us.

I reckon the idea really is how much of our lives come screechin' to a halt when computers fail. Makes fer a very blue day.

first, I love that you turned your blog blue. It adds to the whole effect. Second,

*SHUDDER*

I got the blue screen of death just once. It was my birthday and I thought a friend had sent me an e-card. No, he didn't.

(I'm a PC)

What a clevah choice Aunty! I think it is howling funny but then I've never been blue screened. Frozen screened horrors, but no blue screen.
Like Troll, knock on wood fer us all.

LMAO! Brilliant, Aunty! I love the ones on the advertising hoardings too. Just to show it's not personal to us little people :) Happy MM x

You know, I enlarged one of those pictures and it didn't go away when I was done. Doh!
What's the significance of the music (I know practically nothing about reading notes)? I'm pretty sure no one else will be doing this one - delibertly.

Happy MM!

I live for/with the blod as a part of my professional life.
Imagine the sensation it would cause it micorsoft changed the color!

Pam said...

Oh yes, I have lived with and dealt with the dreaded Blue Screen of Death, and called it that before I even knew that was the name for it. But Aunty, I want to know what is the music score?

Aunty Belle said...

Well, y'all, Aunty ain't no musicologist but I think the music is a BLUES score--an that pic precedes the blues band palyin' in front of the Blue Screen of Death.

or, that was mah intent, folks.

Heh...I figgered few would find this allurin' but some things in life jes' bring on the BLUES!

Unknown said...

Brilliant as always! Have definately had blue screens in my past, but none recently... knock on wood! happy mute monday!

You are so clever with this meme.
I have had zero computer disasters in decades of PC use.
I've seen the blue screen a few times long ago, but it was a momentary irritation.
Really enjoyed your selection.

I've been an Apple Biter to the core since the day the first lil' 128K came on the scene, so I've never encountered the fearsome Blue Screen of Death. But I've heard the screams coming from S.B.'s office plenty o'times :o) Happy Mute Monday!

Good afternoon Aunty Belle,

I'm still laughing, that was brilliant! I have experienced the blue screen. It's amazing how frustrating the experience can be.

SophieMae said...

I still haven't figured out... where's the ANY key?

I must be some kinda sick, coz I chuckled all the way through... and L'edOL at the windshield.

There is tool Digeus I always use it when there are problems with operational system. I also use Windsty Tune Up Suite. It prevents computer problems.
