I like the old BSOD, it talked to me in a way I'll never find again

Still looks like a blue screen to me!

Does it at least have an error code so you can decipher something? Can't seem to read the small print.

@iLOVENZB. Dude, I was thinking the same thing, seems almost pointless having a error screen with no clues.

From Techworld website amongst others: "Not every developer is impressed by BSoD’s clean new look. “Gone are the confusing and uninformative error codes, and in its place you get an equally uninformative sad emoticon,” said Engadget contributing editor and blogger, Terrence O’Brien."

its still blue. but no error codes is stupid. and whoever said they are "uninformative" is an idiot. that blue screen told you a lot.
