    I was in college studying computers when this came out. Drove past Stuyvesant (their HS in the film) daily. The depiction of tech was completely silly back then, but the jargon was actually pretty spot on.

      Fun fact: Three soundtracks were published. The OST, then Hacker^2, followed by Hackers^3. At some point, a re-release was done that included some of the original music by Simon Boswell. Although that could have been a bootleg, I got in the 00s. They did put out an official 25th-anniversary version in 2020 that included Simon's music.

We all Hazed the living F out of the 1 older guy who actually complied with this policy & submitted memo's. The rest of us had the boss man convinced we had no need to send emails or transmit files, so he was raising the suspicion of the boss man that we actually did indeed "Utilize" emails & e-file transfers.
