Microsoft’s Blue Screen Joke

I knew there was a fake BlueSceen Screensaver running around.

But did you know it was distributed by Microsoft itself since 2006 ?

The creator is Mark Russinovich, a Microsoft Software Engineer who seems to love Windows troubleshooting and error messages screenshots. He must have been pissing in his pants laughing so hard for twelve consecutive days the first time he tricked an unsuspecting coworker with the screensaver.
