Windows 98 is Plug and \\u2026 Whoa?

During the COMDEX Spring \\u201998 and Windows World shows in Chicago, a public demonstration of the soon-to-be-released Windows 98 goes awry when Bill Gates\\u2019 assistant causes the operating system to crash after plugging in a scanner. Instead of showing the plug-and-play capabilities, they were trying to demonstrate, a \\u201cBlue Screen of Death\\u201d is visible to the entire audience which immediately erupts in laughter. After several seconds, Bill Gates famously responded, \\u201cThat must be why we\\u2019re not shipping Windows 98 yet.\\u201d

Mr. Gates was attempting to demonstrate its support for the new hardware technology, the Universal Serial Bus.

It is provided through a feature known as 'plug and play' - lampooned by its critics as 'plug and pray' when it was first introduced in Windows 95.
