Here's it running in a Parallels VM.

Note the ballon text that pops up every 2-3 minutes. This is one of the biggest annoyances about Windows - I f*ing know I don't have a virus checker installed.

Edit: By the way "Fixit machine" is one of my 3yr old's favorites.
can't you go into security center and tell Windows you have an av thatll u monitor urself, even though u dont?

Thats just complete BS! Either you don't know what you are doin in Windows or you have bad hardware or driver problem..

Pardon me for taking Windows side on this specific comment.. but I'm a pro Windows XP user and handle about 80+ computers @ work, both software as well as system config and i haven't seen a blue screen in ages.. Tho, i have to admit i use Mac os X @ home :eek:

PS: I'm talking about Windows XP here..

Had to be done.


You should be BANNED for committing such lude acts in public. Can you see there are children here?! .... Though I knew you man!

LOL, J/K! I think this picture should be reposted on the next page just once as a warning to those wanting to boot in WinXP to do their business work in.

That blue screen picture should be the official logo for Apple's Bootcamp software :)
