@informatikradar Jurassic Park 1 - ziemlich gute Darstellung der Kontrollzentrale

Wer kennt sie nicht, die Klischee-Nerds, die in Hollywood-Filmen völligen Nonsens in ihre Tastatur hacken und in Sekunden jede Firewall überlisten? Für unser Magazin suchen wir Filme, die Informatik darstellen: entweder richtig gut oder grottig! Tipps gerne an redaktion@gi.de!
