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 don't see it so much anymore, but in the '90s, did you notice how absolutely every computer in every movie was an Apple?
I recall reading that it was easier to sync the refresh of Apple monitors to the camera, thus avoiding flicker. Unfortunately I am completely unable to find a reference. Nowadays it will likely be more a matter of every computer having an lcd monitor.
