Pirates of Silcon Valley


Recommended Posts

Does anyone remember this movie at all from like 1997-1998? It was basically about Microsoft and Apple with Steve Jobs in it and Bill Gates...but anyway, does anyone know if there is a DVD of it released at all. I found the VHS on Amazon today that I was considering buying, but if there was a DVD of it I'd rather just get that. I havent seen it on TV since it was first on TNT (I dont know if any other countries have that station). If anyone knows something can you let me know. Thanks in advanced.

I was just looking for this movie last week. My friend told me I could get it on DVD at blockbuster, but I havent gotten a chance to get over there and look. However I did find some bad quality rips..

Does anyone know how close to reality the plot holds true and how much is just fiction?

I believe "The Waz" once said that everything in that movie, down to most of the lines actually took place. He talked about how the creators went back and interviewed lots and lots of people to get it as perfect as they could. I wonder if I can find the article where he said that.

You can find some information here and also look through the "Letters" section of his website.

I believe it stuck *somewhat* close to various events/lines said known to have taken place.

It of course probably over-acted/over-simplified/dramatized various things for the sake of drama / interest in a 1-2 hour TV movie.

I wouldn't treat it like a documentary or something.
