Ok, I'll bite.  "Uh-oh...the memory in my computer is bad.  Does that
mean I have to have my Mac repaired."
(Don't laugh...that's exactly what some people would thing...)

These errors, as with most, can be generated by other things going wrong
so that the System really doesn't know what's going on... in many cases
the ID of the System Error is completely irrelevant as to why it happened.
