More details below:
Funny thing is, I never noticed it while watching the opening ceremony on TV, but apparently, it can be seen on the NBC broadcast of the ceremony, as confirmed by Gizmodo.com. It's always funny to see BSODs in random places, but who would have ever thought that it would appear at the Olympics Opening Ceremony? Thanks Microsoft for giving us the joy of BSODs in random public places.Well this is just perfect. At the exact moment Li Ning was rounding the lip of the Bird's Nest during the amazing torch-lighting climax, someone snapped this photo of our good friend the BSOD nestled amongst the Nest's steel twigs. Perhaps an Opening Cermonies IT dude spit out his coffee on the machines in the server room when Li took to the sky? Another question is what a projection screen is doing inside the Nest at that location, but I think the better question is what wasn't going on inside the Nest's roof—did you see that thing during the ceremonies? Lights! Fireworks! LED screens! Everything! Anyway, if only one image of this perfectness existed we'd be skeptical, but thankfully, someone has grabbed more from a different angle that pretty much seal the deal.
UPDATE: And it's been confirmed on the NBC broadcast by commenter cirby on his DVR. Fo' real!
