The Gibson
"Hacking the Gibson" is usually the naked, sticky sheets wet dream of 13-year-old haXX0rZ everywhere. After watching "Hackers" at least 100 times and seeing Tomb Raider's tits beckoning them over the keyboard, they usually go batshit insane with hormones and try to hack/crack anything on teh Internets. Luckily for most everyone else they don't know how to do jack except talk shit on IRC, hit themselves with viruses from Russian websites and then whine about it...on IRC.
Anyway, this movie is so old it doesn't even have teh Internets on it. Dialup?! Pu-leaze.
A typical session of Gibson hacking
