Microsoft's Blue Screen of Death has been simultaneously worrying and pissing people off since Windows 1.0. No doubt trying to add a bit of sexy glamour to an otherwise frustrating experience, Microsoft's next OS looks to include a black screen.
The change in colors (well, color to an absence of color) was dug up in an early build of Windows 8. It's possible Microsoft could have a change in heart and decide not to paint everything in black—after all, early copies of Windows 98 and Vista showed a Red Screen of Death. It's just as well they defaulted back to the BSOD—I would've had a heart attack seeing a blood-red RSOD flashing up.

I want my real BSOD back
It looks a lot nicer and less scary
I dont see color, all I see is the screen of death...
@=dgrphx= i refer you to my post on equivocation.
I think black is a good choice, 'BSOD' still covers it.
Same security flaws, new looks
Does Windows 7 have a BSOD, I haven't ever seen it?
There should be no screen of death. C'mon MS.
danngit i've conditioned myself to always worry when i see a blue screen. At least I've won't immediately lose it when i see a black screen of death.

I'll miss my blue screen of death when I'm getting driver issues :(
damn, i actually liked that color. at least microsoft is deciding to change a few things, even a little bit. great blog, following =]
wow...now thats change you can believe in.
Why fix it if it ain't broke?
Doesn't look as worrying as blue screen...
is funny cause when i get a blue screen on my pc i think "theres nothing really bad with my computer or whatsoever, this happens just because microsoft screw it"
black has always been associated with bad things though, right? =]
That's just so they can include in the press release that Windows 8 will not blue screen.
It's like when he said the 360 slim couldn't get the RROD but that was because it no longer had the same ring not because they'd fixed the issue.
"this year we put a 12 on the label"
