This one smarts on so many levels for me personally, but when I put those feelings aside, I admit it’s quite funny. Doomlaser has created a Mac screensaver that faithfully and harmlessly reproduces the Mac OS X screen I’ve seen more than I care to lately. The fun screen saver replicates what I’ve been calling the "grey veil of death" and simulates a full kernel panic while teaching you to be multi-lingual. At least I feel vindicated by my catch phrase, since TUAW describes it as the "slowly dropping grey shade of despair." Maybe I should have checked my screensaver before DHL picked up my MacBook Pro earlier today? Oh well; too late now. Don’t have a Mac but still want the feel the pain with me? Just hit this YouTube video of the screensaver. :)
