Now, when Windows Vista? crashes, you will get a Red Screen of Death, instead of the Blue one.  Some improvement, huh?  :)

Same lame excuse of an O/S, with more and more bugs.

Afaik you are able to change teh color of teh bluescreens on Windows XP also ^^. You should be able to change it on other Windows versions as well. A friend of mine had a greyscreen with red letters ^^ or a red screen with grey letters ^^.

i recently read at neowin.net
that they are actualy not gonna keep
the red screen BSOD screen color
but that they are gonna put it back to the usual blue.

not sure how accurate the info was
but i think they said that (ms) because
people were making fun of the red screen
for around a year now..

Not that i really care what color it is..
(im hoping i dont have to see any color bsod screens)

In all fairness to MS i think we all ought give em
the benefit of the doubt and wait n see what the final product
is like WHEN its done, and not base our judgements
on pre bete samples and the ever changing MS announcements.

Remember the reception XP got when it was released ?
And now.. its generally well received so..
