notchinese Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 Typically on TV shows the fake OS's look like some weird OSX + Windows XP hybrid. Its hideous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

compl3x Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 Why don't they just use an actual OS? Is it like a legal issue with showing an OS on T.V./Movie? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Method Man Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 Why don't they just use an actual OS? Is it like a legal issue with showing an OS on T.V./Movie? Probably, just like how they always position bottles, etc so that the logo is turned away from the camera unless its a case of blatant paid product placement.

Dot Matrix Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 It's too bad none of these operating systems will ever come to be. They don't have a start menu, so they're all broken. ;) Avatar: Stoffel, The Evil Overlord, Dick Montage and 2 others 5 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreatMarkO Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 Why are they ficitional? Can't they just be Windows/Linux/etc with a skin on top? Or indeed an application running on any OS but in "full screen" mode!? :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#Michael Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 Why are they ficitional? Can't they just be Windows/Linux/etc with a skin on top? They are actually. There is an episode of firefly where you can see the windows desktop for a moment before the screen pans to a different person. When the screen pans back to the computer screen it is the firefly interface. It looked like it was windows 95/2000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
