Who else has noticed a rather elusive technical inconsistency in the
Terminator films as mentioned below?

For example, in the first film, Reese refers to Ah-nuld's character as
"Cyberdyne Systems model one-zero-one" (technically correct) - this is
during the scene in the stolen car right after the Tech-Noir shootout.

In the second film, Ah-nuld's character references his own model to the
young John in the alley as "Cyberdyne Systems model one-oh-one" (technically
inaccurate).

Maybe JC was trying to point out how humans can emulate machines (the first
example above), or how machines can have flaws like humans (second example
above).

I wouldn't put it past Cameron to inject something this interesting into the
storyline. How many people do you know that reference a zero as the letter
"O" on a daily basis?

Since this group has not seen much action lately, anyone care to discuss?

WOOOOOHHHOOOO someones posted in here


Well i never noticed that before,
i dont think though that it was meant to be in there although it does
sound alot more interesting JC putting it in on purpose... which come
to think of it he could have done and in T2 Ah-nuld's (i quite like
that spelling) character is learning to be more human anyway

Good point - I just find that someone so technically acute and
detail-oriented such as JC (he edits most of his stuff anyway) would have
missed this.

Who knows - if I ever find out he's on a chat (hello...do I hear T3
coming?), I'll pose this question :)
