DESCRIPTION

Panic... Simulate a kernel panic. Press Command-Q to exit and commmand-comma to change the animation time.

You can change keyboard shortcuts in System Preferences. The menu items are "Quit Panic" and "Panic Preferences".

There is also a Blue Screen of Death mode.

There is a known issue in which command-Q may not quit the application. If this happens, press the Exposé key on your keyboard and select another application. Then quit Panic from the Dock.

    NOTAFOOL  The moron that developed this application should now devote his skills and energy to creating a simulated or virtual brain for himself, as he plainly has not got a functioning real one. This application IMHO is every bit as nasty and evil as viruses, trojans, spyware and other malware. To even THINK of posting an application such as this to MacUpdate only serves to establish just what an evil, brainless idiot the developer must be. Shame on him Shame !

    FREE_DEVELOPMENT  This is a form of security software. No one wants to touch a computer with a blue screen of death on it. ;)

    RAMPANCY  I guess April 1st came a little early?

    I can see this being a great (albeit nasty) prank app. Loaded it up into your unsuspecting victim's login items. Watch hilarity ensue as your victim goes apoplectic over his/her Mac going nuts. (It'd likely eventually cause some serious corruption on their hard drive as they repeatedly force their Mac through hard reboot after hard reboot.)
