Whatever steps I have or have not taken are not relevant to my main point -- That this happens in the first place.
The public perception is that Macs do not crash. I am providing empirical evidence not only that they do crash, but they do so in a spectacular way. If your point is that the crash is fixable... Well, yes. And so are the overwhelming majority of crashes in Windows (or UNIX/Linux, or BeOS, or OS/400, or whatever).
If you can provide evidence of a Windows machine doing a snow crash, I welcome it. If not, then I regret to say Macs really are different.
