I think this is self evident that the new G5s are becoming more and more dangerous.

I was watching Terminator 3: Rise Of The Machines, and paused it to peek at what Arnieterminator was seeing, finding this in the scene where he is restarting after shutting down.

There was no skynet. No military system out to take over the world... it was... it was....

iNet!

People who used to own Apple II computers and who used to subscribe to Nibble Magazine will recognize that in the first Terminator movie, when they would show the view through the Terminator's eyes, the computer readouts were listings of the type-in programs from Nibble. (So, in that respect it's not too surprising that they used more Apple-related things in Terminator 3).

Also, if you watch the first two RoboCop movies, you'll see that the original RoboCop apparently was based on some sort of Intel-based DOS (COMMAND.COM, etc). But the other (supposedly "new-and-improved") RoboCop (the one from the second movie that used the drug-addict from prison as the person), ran some type of Mac OS (when they showed his point of view, you saw pull-down menus written in the Chicago font).

I'm more of a fan of the Apple / X-Men 2 connection. When Mystique is going thru Stryker's files, we see a messy desktop and this:



Even government security institutions run iTunes!

Love how they changed "Adobe" to "Adoe". Fooch 4.0 = Fetch 4.0? MON Messenger = MSN Messenger? The only really disturbing part is that they have Internet Exploder on there, and the window on the right appears to be some kind of weird OS 9 window.

You can see it for yourself around time 24:05 if you have the DVD.

The interface might make for an interesting SS-Theme or something.
