With Microsoft’s Build ongoing, various previews of Windows 7’s successor can also be downloaded as well as version of the OS itself can tried, although it isn’t something that I would do, as the OS is still in it’s testing version.

Unfortunately, it isn’t confirmed whether or not this version of the BSoD will be kept in the final version, although, even if not necessary, it’s kind of nice to see an update, even though having a smiley instead of the old-school BSoD won’t change anything.
