    i went to a theater once and it had that same message on the screens they have in the lobby.
    His name was MackemX

    What kind of a man are you? The guy is unconscious in a coma and you don't have the guts to kiss his girlfriend?

    the only crashed ATMs I've ever seen were at an OS2 dos prompt. I found myself thinking... "Is there a keyboard port here somewhere I dont see?"

  13. I read somewhere that NASA uses old (mission proven) computers to avoid things like the blue screen of death.

    That is why I am guessing in that above link you are seeing a DOS screen.

    Yeah, instead of a blue screen of death, the computer just dies.

    Even with the billions NASA's gets in the budget they still can't afford the high price of a MAC

    I saw on a special about the spacestation (some years ago) that they are using 386 processors running in parallel (sp?), using a custom OS (something like linux). A PVM or MPI computer. Maybe you could call it a stuper computer (pointing at the 386 processor). Parallel Virtual Machines are the current pattern in the fastest super computer race. Some run *nix, some winderz. Some x86, some PPC (Mac), some SGI type (risc). But most all of them run as a pile of PC's, as opposed to custom made main boards with hundreds of pro's soldered onto it.
    Hope is the trap the world sets for you every night when you go to sleep and the only reason you have to get up in the morning is the hope that this day, things will get better... But they never do, do they?
