SadPod

I love this picture. Some older iPods had a feature called Disk Scanning which would sometimes occur when you powered it on. When it was running you would see various hard drive icons and then the above picture if the scan found problems that it couldn't fix. Could you imagine seeing this thing on your screen? Sure it's funny now, but if this is how you're told your $300+ gadget is dead I really doubt you'd feel the same way. Older Mac hardware had similar Sad Mac icon that occurred at start-up if a hardware test failed. In addition a car crash sound would play!! What sick-o thought this was a good idea?!
