Yeah... I hate those movies...

The only correct movies about computers are Jurassic Park (OK, they screwed up the 3D UNIX file system which was slower than in real life), War Games (for respecting hackers) and The Matrix (Neo is using Alt+X and Ctrl+Esc to shud down the virus Trinitry send him... Tom Cruise is using the Esc button in "Mission Impossible" to print text  :confused: ).
