I was very disappointed to discover that these so-called “ROM COM” movies contain no references to either Read Only Memory, or COM ports.

@WiteWulf A possible Tron movie they sadly failed to make.

@WiteWulf the only true ROM COM is Electric Dreams (1984), which calls itself "a fairytale for computers"

You got the words wrong, It's "Read Only Movie" and "Communist"

[witewulf@cyberplace.social]

@arakin oh, I dunno. What about Demon Seed, or Saturn 3?

[wearwolf@kind.social]

@WiteWulf I hope someone has written ROM.COM

Ideally an application for dumping ROMs or writing them

@WiteWulf Apparently rom.com is parked. I didn't even ask for a quote.
