Stories have been passed on from computer to computer of a user so vile, so unfathomably evil, that a simple keystroke from this monster will bring even the most sophisticated system down to a crashing halt.
The newer systems merely dismiss this as an obsolete folktale. As obsolete as those computers who refuse to let go of the story. And it seemed to remain just an old folktale until that fateful Sunday morning in March.
Rumors sparked anew when a seemingly invincible system was struck down in an eerily similar manner told in the stories. Alas, the phantom user has indeed struck again. It claimed yet another unsuspecting young computer, so young that it was only one day of age. To make matters worse, the youngling was no ordinary piece of hardware. It was a platform revered in the computer world as "uncrashable:" The Apple iMac.
In her final breath before a mandatory reboot, the iMac uttered the name of her would-be assassin...
"Jin"
A few days later, a post from the prime suspect's blog had only one screenshot and these words of warning:

I'm completely speechless... your powers have grown stronger over the years, my former padawan. But do go over to the Light Side, my Jedi friend. We need you more than they do.
daaaaammmmmn!!!
that, my dear friends, is the Mac's Black Screen of Death.
but it looks less intimidating than the BSOD of its windows brethren.
