I love DVD commentaries. This one is awesome. I'm a software developer myself, and one of the things about the film I liked was that it got programming mostly right, and that the boys are believable nerds.
The fandom does get things hilariously wrong sometimes. One thing that seems to happen often and really throws me out of the story is "programming codes" or "computer codes". It happens in passing as well, with people who know enough not to try technobabble.
Also, is a story written from Mark's or Dustin's POV realistic without any jargon or computer metaphors? I know that my conversation is completely steeped in it, and I have more outside interests than obsessive CS students or kids in a tech startup.
