The movie credits the Free Software community, and features Gnome *very* prominently. Ret-conned advertising! In the scene where they're pumping gas, you can see Boys and Girls Aid Society of Oregon in the background, I used to intern there. We used have lunch at the gas station that scene takes place at. One *GLARING* error in the movie that I immediately noticed: The movie is filmed and set in Portland: The state fire marshall prohibits self-serve, it's all mini or full serve here[2]. stable: milo-hoffman (the open-source hack turned Nurv recruit) unstable: gary-winston (the CEO of Nurv) [1] Those in Europe know it as Conspiracy.com. [2] Oddly, our gas tends to be cheaper than on the other side of the Columbia in Vancouver, according to some live footage on this morning's news, you get to pay $1.819/gal to stand in the rain and pump it yourself at Arco, the Texaco on the other end of the block is charging $1.779/gal and you don't have to get out, and the Arco across the street from the Texaco is $1.759/gal, but Arco sucks: They make you get out to pay even if you use a card or have exact change... -- .''`.
