I'm not asking for any links to it or anything as I believe that's against forum rules...anyways, has anyone here been lucky enough to get ahold of some of the real leaked windows source code? :cool:

No, I haven't seen any. I've heard that it's a great deal of fun to read though; it's full of poorly written code and profane comments. I'm somewhat leery of trying to find it - it is probably as illegal as things get...
hexstar 5
yeah but the comments would be a good read :p...heh, no wonder why windows is the way it is XD

Sorry about the highlighting, I had to search for it so I could copy/paste it.

Thats great! Thanks for the link to that other post, was a very interesting read. I'm glad to hear I'm not the only person who comments like that. :)

That fake Windows code is pretty funny. I definitely connected with some of that...
Side note: Catweazle's post count is now 1023, a number that most of us find somewhat significant...
hexstar 5
lol yeah the fake code is pretty funny

I don't want to even touch leaked Windows code, because sometimes it's hard to find this kind of stuff and when you get a hold of it, then you are unsure if it's safe or not because many people launch bad copies on the internet.
hexstar 5
yeah but if you get a good copy not only do you get major bragging rights :p but you can read the interesting and sometimes funny comments supposedly made by the programmers hehe

You know, I'd actually buy one of those shirts if they made 'em.
hexstar 5
actually if you right click and view the image properties that image is from a online store that sells those shirts :p - the url of the online store is: http://www.errorwear.com

Yeah it's not like it's fake :)

I'd feel all out of date and out of fashion if I had one of those I reckon. I haven't seen a 'BSOD' since Windows XP was invented ;)

Well! I know where $14.50+s/h of my next paycheck is going!

My WinXP gets BSOD once in a while (of course I fixed them though, but it doesn't mean that you don't get them when you have WinXP :))
hexstar 5
yeah, I've gotten a bsod on windows xp numerous times before and once on MacOS X (or as mac users would say, a kernel panic)
