I kind of like all the anachronistic elements in old sci-fi movies. It doesn't really feel like an error; it feels more like a stylistic choice. The chunky CRTs and grimy machinery gives the world character, and makes the world feel tangible. I'd take that over a sterile, Apple-eque vision of the future any day (in my fiction, at least).


The sf movie 'Her' has a very Apple-like feel in the production design. Great movie, but of course a totally different feel.
