Funny.

I've had panic images displayed on my MacBookPro before.  OSX panics are almost always caused by hardware faults.  In my case, the Airport card connector was faulty, and the board it was on had to be replaced.  More commonly, the panics are caused by RAM compatibility issues.

I once got a kernel panic by simply unplugging my iPod!

It's common knowledge that those things are designed for PC's nowdays :p

 I was going to say that I didn't know any iPod owners that weren't using GTKpod or iDump on non-Wintel systems.  I guess that's one.  :D
