Now that the awe from the Olympic ceremony has subsided, tech boffins have been analyzing the extravaganza with a fine tooth comb. In addition to CGI firework footprints and lip syncing children, Gizmodo has found images of the Windows blue error screen projected onto the roof of the Olympic stadium during Li Ning's torch flight. Whoops!

Obviously it is a faked blue screen.
But, well, if China could do it, why not Gizmodo?
In order not to become the next loser one day, these Mac kids should concentrate more on Russia cyber-attack which made the Georgian playboy shit in his pink pants.
speaking of failures...
China can't even come up with a completely authentic Olympics, it has to rely on computer trickery to pass off a super spring festival.
This whole event is a sad, sick joke.
Fuck China.
Good, now maybe Microsoft will acknowledge Vista is a piece of s**t!

F*ck China?
You are allowed, girl, as long as China f*cked you already. I still remember vividly how you wept that Olympic night: "How could China treat us like this!"
Did you come up with that all by yourself leastman?
Who is "us"?
the footprints firework was real, it's just what we saw on TV was CGI.

From previous interviews with the producer of the opening ceremony, they used Windows XP because the stability of Vista was still in question. Not saying that this "blue screen" is real or not, just that if it is, it wasn't Vista related.

You fuck China once, I fuck your mom twice. If I ever see you in person, I'll chop your dick off, if you have one.
I don't care if it was all 'fake'. It was like a movie and was very entertaining. I will not be buying the DVD though!
The same thing happened in Times Square in New York. A gigantic billboard suddenly went 'error window'. It was like four stories high!
