Lol that ones fake, the other one was apparently on a giant screen in NY.

I've seen one almost that big on every single screen in Victoria station... I could barely contain my mirth. Funnily enough the g/f didn't see the funny side

Saw one on those screens on the bus the other day

Was on a London tour bus once and the computer playing the tour audio crashed, followed by the Windows 98 startup tune a few minutes later.

"The 18.10 to Edinburgh will be calling at kernel.exe, ghtms.dll, startup.bat and msdiag.sys. There will be plenty of time for refreshments on this train"

The Yanks slapped him on the most wanted list. The humourless fools.

I've seen windows error messages many a time on cash points.. normally DHCP lease expiry... Having said that, I saw a cash machine failing to boot OS/2 Warp the other day!

Ah Comical Ali, he was quality. He's now living in the UAE with his family. He didn't even make an appearance on my 'Most Wanted' Iraqi playing cards.

He did say something that was on the money though :

"This invasion will end in failure."

Tallbloke you are very wrong, it is a well known fact that Bagdad Bob/Comical Ali was never put on the most wanted cards. I don't care if you are anti-American but you could try to get your facts straight on occassion just for the shock value.

In a similar vein I saw Stephen Hawking once and his computer/transport system crashed. His assistant had to re-boot the machine - oh how the audience pi$$ed themselves when we heard the windows startup tune. Stephen himself even laughed.
