With the computer market exploding into success the last 20 years more and more movies are featuring people using computers. Being a computer geek myself, I expect a level of "technological reality" for the movies that are not in the realm of "sci-fi", but directors usually are feeding their movies with superficial scenes about computers just for the happy clapping from the computer-illiterate audience.

I love how images from surveillance and stoplight cameras can be zoomed in and enhanced via the Magical Image Enhancement feature, thus yielding a big break in the case. I really enjoy the Law & Order series, but when cracking a case involves these type of antics I'm really disappointed in the writers.
Seriously though, I wonder how much of this Hollywood OS b.s. contributes to FUD in those unfamiliar with modern technology.
I'd love to see someone create an OS called Hollywood OS that borders on the ridiculous, but appeals to the masses. Wait, never-mind, Longhorn is on its way.
