* FairForItsDay: The relationship between Terri and Jack is clearly romantic, and is one of the first instances of not just a female geek, but a female BlackAndNerdy character, much less as the protagonist. The romantic finale, however, has Jack arrive and triumphantly... hold Terri's hand and take her to dinner. In addition, Jack himself is an average looking Creator/JonathanPryce, not a sexy Franchise/JamesBond.

Never mind that chat services have massively improved in the past few decades.
* ShownTheirWork: The network Terry does her work on is referred to as a "transponder," which means it is a satellite-based network; Jack says he is using a "clamshell terminal," which is basically a simple crude laptop with a satellite transmitter, for communicating in the field. A similar one is used in Film/SpiesLikeUs. It also (sort of, not really) explains why the computers in the bank sometimes pick up Russian television: it's picking up the wrong satellite.
