Piratas de Silicon Valley (1999)
Silicon Valley es una región de California donde se asientan, desde la década de los ochenta, muchas de las nuevas empresas relacionadas con la informática y las nuevas tecnologías. "Pirates of Silicon Valley" relata, con los nombres reales, los principios de las empresas Apple y Microsoft a través de sus fundadores: Steve Jobs y Steve Wozniak por parte de Apple, y Bill Gates y Paul Allen como fundadores de Microsoft. Creadores de dos de las mayores multinacionales del mundo de los ordenadores y el software de hoy en día, este entretenido telefilm muestra los comienzos de estos jóvenes con enorme talento pero no demasiado buen carácter. Además, esta historia de ficción tuvo cierta polémica en su estreno, pues afirma claramente que Gates y Allen (de Microsoft) copiaron de Macintosh para su sistema operativo Windows.
