   We saw Tron: Legacy over the weekend.  It had a plot.   
   Some plot anyways.  That was a nice bonus.   
      
   Bruce did a great job.   
      
   I saw a continuity gaff that might be noticed by folks who   
   were already in the computer industry when the original Tron   
   came out.  A group from the office went to see the original   
   Tron.  When I got back I stopped at the office and logged in   
   to check my email.  The message on login was "You shouldn't   
   have come back, Flynn".  I figured someone in the group had   
   rushed to change the system banner.  Anyways, this was a   
   VMS 3.2 system at a time when the current UNIX was BSD   
   4.1 with BSD 4.2 being a fresh release.  Sun was a tiny niche   
   player at the time with a brand new manufacturing facility.   
      
   When Flynn the younger works on the system he types   
   "uname -a" and it says the system is running SunOS 4.0.1.   
   That release was 4-6 years after the original Tron movie came   
   out.
