Hey, can we stop bragging yet?

When an application crashes in Mac OS X, there’s a dialog box that appears to inform you of it. It mentions that no other applications are affected. This irritates me every time I see it. Honestly, I thought they’d remove this before 10.0 went final. It meant for a nice “Oooh, ahhh!” moment at WWDC in 1998 or so, given a crowd of Mac OS developers, but has been meaningless ever since. This is expected behavior in a modern operating system!

Mac OS X doesn\'t have to restart... we know, we know!
