Don't you ever wish that you could get your Mac to crash like a Windows machine? We don't either. On the other hand, we decided that we really wanted a screensaver that made it look like our Mac had crashed while running Windows. Why? We're twisted like that. So we made one.

This screensaver will not crash your Mac. It will not give you Windows. It will not hurt your cat, dog, family member, or other pet. It will, however, display one of over 200 highly realistic BSODs -- complete with real stop codes and messages and dynamically-generated memory addresses.

Basically, it will look just like a real, not-so-live Windows crash -- enough so that you could actually look up what the error codes mean in Microsoft's documentation.
(But why would you, right?)
