Instructions on how to "customize"  your Blue Screen of Death Messages.  (e.g. instead of "A problem was detected on your computer and windows has been shut down..." it says "Windows suddenly decided to hate you" )

I'm with soapboy on this one, I almost never get a BSOD, maybe once a year or so.  I suppose if your using an older version of windows you may see them pretty often, but in my experience XP is fairly stable.....except when developing hardware drivers  ;D
