True, there are lots of inaccuracies in "War Games", but what impressed me most
was how faithfully it presented the hackers' computer culture.  The movie's
tone rang true, even if some details were incorrect (like the fact that his
IMSAI's CRT just happened to use the same graphics protocol as WOPR, or that
his ASCII-to-VOICE synthesizer didn't pronounce his typing--only WOPR's
responses.)  Ah, expediency!
