FC4 has a screen saver that replicates the scrolling text of a system

I used to joke with some frinds about how would users reacgt to screensavers
like this.
We amused ourselves thinking of the users hitting their LCDs when the
XTeeVee or the XAnalogTV.
The bsod got me a few times though... when I saw unknown (to me) messages
The first time I saw one of these, it looked like a Sun Microsystems
Solaris crash/reboot. I did a real-life double take. How on Earth could
my IBM PC be doing a SUN/SOLARIS reboot? It took probably a second or
two for me to figure it out.

I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you.
