Computers in movies are always like this:
1. Word processing software never shows a cursor.
2. When you type a long sentence, you never need to use the space bar.
3. Movie actors never make spelling mistakes.
4. All screens display characters 1 foot high.
5. High-tech computers, such as those used by NASA, the CIA, or other government departments, all have simple and easy-to-use graphical interfaces.
6. As for computers without graphical interfaces, they all have extraordinarily capable character-based interfaces that can correctly understand and execute commands typed in natural language.
7. Just type “Access The Secret Files” or something close to it, and the computer will give you any information you want.
8. Simply by typing “Upload Virus”, you can easily use a computer virus to attack a computer.
9. All computers are networked. You can read any information on someone else’s computer, even if that computer is turned off.
10. When you press keys or when the screen changes, powerful computers make sounds. Some computers automatically slow down the speed of screen output to match your reading speed (truly advanced computers also make printer-like sounds at the same time).
11. When people use computers, they can shut them off at any time without worrying about losing data.
12. Hackers can always get into secure computers after guessing the password only once or twice.
13. You can use the “Override” function to get around the “Permission Denied” message.
14. Computers always boot in 2 seconds, instead of taking 2 minutes like an ordinary PC, and of course they never need 30 minutes or even longer like those large systems that can run 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
15. They can complete complex calculations and access huge amounts of data within 3 seconds, and modems usually run at 2GB per second.
16. When a power station, missile base, or main computer fails, all the control panels explode before the whole building explodes.
17. If you are displaying a file on the screen and someone else deletes that file, it will disappear from your screen at the same time.
18. If there is an encrypted file on a disk, when you put it into the drive, the computer will automatically ask you for the password.
19. Computers can operate with other computers regardless of what architecture they use, or what part of the galaxy they come from.
20. A disk can be used on any computer with a floppy drive, and all software can run on any platform.
21. The more advanced the equipment is, the more buttons it has.
22. You must undergo extensive training to use advanced computers, because on those computers, none of the buttons are labeled except the “self-destruct” button.
23. Most computers, no matter how small they are, can display 3D animation and have graphics processing capabilities.
24. Laptop computers always have real-time videophone capability, and their performance is no worse than a super CRAY computer.
25. No matter when, if someone is looking at the screen, the screen is always bright enough to project its image onto the person’s face.
26. When you search the Internet, no matter how vague the keyword is, you can always find what you want.

I think computers in Chinese TV are even more powerful than this!
For example, after frantically typing a bunch of characters, the Win98 startup screen appears!

Maybe “computers in movies” are expressing a kind of aspiration people have toward computers...
