	Speaking of "Criminal Minds", if you notice Garcia's computer screens 
in most episodes, the computers are running either KDE or Gnome, and 
there's usually a bunch of terminal windows open.  I've caught some 
fairly realistic looking perl and shell-script code when they do quick 
up-close shots of the screens.  Freeze-frame on a TiVo (hey, look, 
embedded Linux!) is an amusing thing from time to time.
