Best two places for me were the self checkout thingy's at walmart. The screens there were BSOD'd.

Another place was an entire wall of departure times at the Tucson airport that had errored to a BSOD.

I've seen BSOD's at airports and supermarkets as well. I think one that took the cake though is when i saw 4 BSOD's @ compusa on retail computers

Now the real question is how do you say it. Do you spell it out "B-S-O-D", or do you say "Bee-sod?" I've never seen one in an interesting place.

There was a local cable channel where I used to live that ran advertisements and music. Apparently the computer that ran the ads was really old and had problems, because once I saw a Win95 BSOD, and another time the POST screen with a "Drive not ready" error.

Macy's display at Herald Square. Somebody posted a pic of it on here, then I saw it a couple weeks later walking to work.

I've seen it at pretty much all of 'em.

My favorite though was a local news channel got BSOD'd on their weather map. :D

And I say "BSOD".
