He found them due to the fact there was "time" used on the computer he couldn't figure out to which department in his company it should be billed. That appeals to me as an ex-bean counter as well as an IT person. <br>

Hollywood movies being clueless: The original Jurassic Park where the little girl is going to undo what the professional admin did to sabotage the computers. A funny moment though was when she sits down and says something like "Ugh, it's UNIX".<br>

Oh man you should see it! Cereal Killer is my fave ;)<br>
<br>
Sandra Bullock is cool. The only thing I liked about that film if I remember...<br>
<br>
Mr. Robot may be an exception but it's lightyears ahead of what the 1990s were like. And it also a phenomenal production in general, those two things seem to go hand in hand.<br>
<br>
I don't expect folks who make their careers in filmography or sound or casting actors and so forth to be computer experts, but I have a lot more respect for productions which consult with experts for accuracy.<br>
