Hands up all those who remember the good old days when we pointed and laughed at crashed display boards running on the MS Windows platform? Not laughing now, are we?

We're not laughing, never did. But a reboot screen is way better than a blue screen, as it isn't even based on a system failure, just waiting for a user input. But yes, poorly configured Grub.

Ultimately I couldn't give a damn. It just makes me smile when I think back to all the kiddies wetting their pants when someone posted a picture of an MS error. In fact, I'm sure I saw a presentation either at LugRadio Live or OggCamp by a guy who had a whole host of an information board and cash machine error messages. Oh, how we laughed our bladders out.
