Actually, I think it’s lack of accuracy is kind of brilliant. It was weird in the day, but it has allowed the movie to be watchable far into the future without being terrible. Like watching it today the only time it gets cringey is when they specifically mention tech specs. e. g. 28.8 kbs modem. If they would have left that out it would fit in most time periods, by not really fitting into any of them.

1·7 days agoI got to use my Netware 4.x admin certification a little while ago. A new customer was having a tangential problem that I overheard, they were still running Netware and couldn’t figure out how to make it work. So I showed them some things and quickly admonished them to get anything newer.
