char *p = malloc(1);
strcpy(p, "hello world");

#2 is unbelievably true. I loved Tribes, and my overwhelming anticipation of Tribes 2 was met with much disappointment.

I actually enjoyed it, and experienced it bug-free until the damned bugfixes started.
So did 2 or 3 other people I know. 99% of the "bugs" that I saw back when I still bothered were related to
1) Prebuilt computers
2) Computers that had NO BUSINESS playing 3d games of any sort
3) PPL THT TLK LYKE DIZ (thereby preventing you from getting an accurate read on exactly what the damned problem is)

That's buffer overflow. Buffer underrun...I'm not even sure what that is. Seems like I've heard the term in connection with CDRW's making coasters because the hard drive can't supply them with data fast enough.
Edit: Additionally, the link uses the term "buffer overrun". Don't know where y'all pulled "buffer underrun" out of.
