Pirates of Silicon Valley was okay, and I liked The Social Network, even if it bears the same resemblance to Facebook's actual history that Lord of the Rings does to the actual Middle Ages.

But your overall point is well-taken.

I thought Anti-Trust was ok. It's pretty Hollywood, but the core ideas were pretty good.

Miguel de Icaza had a cameo in Antitrust. The computers are all running Gnome on Linux. A few decisions are made by characters that wouldn't be made by an actual engineer for the sake of dramatic tension, but overall, it is highly realistic as far as Hollywood goes.
