Windows and weather

I am proud to be an owner of a brand new MacBook Pro with an Intel processor. For the apple-illiterate, this means that essentially any of the most popular Operating Systems may be installed on a Mac (OS X, Windows (all versions -including Vista), Linux). Now, I have been an OS X user for almost 3 years now and I firmly believe in the saying "Once you go Mac, you never go back". However, due to my needs for gaming and a certain software that I have only the Windows version and really need for my dissertation, I have installed Windows XP on my MacBook Pro. It hasn't been more than 2 months that I have installed Windows on my Mac and yesterday I received my first BSOD (Blue Screen of Death) for no apparent reason at all. Now THAT'S priceless!

Many mac enthusiasts say that there is no such thing as an OS X equivalent to the Windows BSOD. There is one, but after 3 years of using a Mac, it has only occurred to me once and there was a reason for that. "Crazy machines..." as a friend of mine would tell me...


Speaking of crazy... What's with the weather? People have drowned in England due to the weather, while in Greece today it's going to be a 44 degrees record-breaker...
