Ouch, that’s some pretty harsh pwnage when your Windows-based movie kiosk is housed by a MS Paint-using vandal that goes by the threatening pseudonym “mew” (plus heart and star). Nice.

Looks like someone accidentally shut off the PXE server! Perhaps Wally World should revert to an “Analog Audio” listening kiosk. Snapped by JohnKit.

I used to live in New York and I can’t tell you how many times I walked by the crashed PSP billboard. Well, enough that I don’t even remember it as the PSP billboard, I remember it as the crashed PSP billboard. This photo from webchango, but there are certainly others.

Now, I’m not amazing with foreign languages, but I don’t think that’s French. Shot by Alx, way back in 2004.

PowerPoint isn’t a happy camper; crashed hard, and ran out of virtual memory. Shot at the James Cook Hotel by deadlyllama.

Found on Devin Lussier’s photostream, taken at the Dallas-Fort Worth airport.

Wow, already Jeremy’s popped Crashing Out’s BSOD cherry with the first of what’s assuredly going to be many dead screens of blue and white. That was fast. Nicely done, sir.

Taken by my pal Jeremy Toeman (Flickr) while on vacation. That guy seems puzzled as to why anyone would take a picture of a crashed display. Obviously he’s never heard of Crashing Out before.

Taken in 2005, actually, by colinj. Song’s Linux system rebooting, although obviously not mid-flight. Why? I dunno, it’s not really “crashed” and it’s not really in a public place. Oh, you mean why do this site? I don’t yet entirely know why, but I find (non-harmful) system crashes in public amusing. Perhaps by posting enough of them I’ll find inner peace with disorderly displays.
