Just got back from seeing the Royal Tenenbaums. There
are a number of
scenes that take place in Chas Tenenbaum's (Ben Stiller) office where
he still has the computer he used 22 yrs. before (1978) as a young
financial whiz. It appears to be a Zenith Z-110 and CRT attaced to -
get this - an Apple 5 1/4" external floppy drive! While at least
temporally close, the configuration isn't.
See? If they'd consulted with me I could've saved them from this nerdly
embarrassment ;)
