Yes - it's there as an X screensaver - but not on the console (AFAIK).

For those who havn't seen it, it cycles through a variety of 'crash screens'
so in addition to BSOD, you get the Mac with the 'x's for eyes, the Guru Meditation
page from the Amiga, the row of bombs from the AtariST, various Solaris and IRIX
crash screens and so on.

Look carefully at the Hex code that comes up as the crash address in the BSOD
screen...it tells you exactly who's fault it is!
