Regarding the 'teaser trailer' and just so I'm sure this is of 'general consensus'...


This is the exact time Kevin Flynn's been missing, right?
I mean, he's been inside the digital world for exactly 20 years, 11 months, 20 days, 16 hours, 22 minutes, 16 seconds and 43 centiseconds, right?

Okay, "three's company"...

What about this screen?



I see a cool Solar OS there...

correct, I posted this at unfiction and they were freaking out. lol

Mark my words.... I will build me a desk like that before I'm dead and gone. I always thought Dillinger's desk was the coolest ever.

Good question. You really can't. At least out here, there's no such thing as a microcycle. A quantum of time in a computer is the cycle. It's what all operations are locked to. Technically, a microcycle is a millionth of a cycle. Nothing that we design operates on that scale.

If you knew what the clock speed was on Flynn's system (cycles per second), you could use that to determine how many cycles are in 20 odd years, then multiply that by a million.

In the early '90s, I worked on a Sun SparcStation with a 40Mhz RISC processor. That was fairly speedy then. Unless Flynn were to pop out every now and then and upgrade his hardware, or get someone to do it for him, he's existing in a really antiquated system.

I doubt that will be explained in the movie as it's irrelevant to the story, as is the nature of the system he's running on (is it really just a standard system of off the shelf parts, or is it some weird quantum photonic memory thingamabob?) but I'd be curious to know, nonetheless.

Those two systems look like what used to be called Mini Computers. Kind of a cross between a workstation and a mainframe.

Hmm, funky variable clock generator there. I looked in a bunch of online computer dictionaries, and I can't find an actual definition of a microcycle. I took it to literally mean a millionth of a clock tick, but the little bit of literature I saw seems to roughly equate a microcycle to a clock tick, but not exactly.

Anyone here qualified enough to give a precise definition?order abortion pill abortion pill buy online where to buy abortion pill

Actually, I always that was just System up time. If we follow some of the mythology of this story, Flynn has been "seen" several times since his disappearence, meaning perhaps that he has been "in" and "out" several times.
