I think it's Tron played around the city - GPS into the laptop and displayed thru the HUD 'n' all
that... I do wish he'd explain it a little more, there's some really interesting looking stuff
there...

Must be based on the PC game that came out a couple years back, not the
movie?

You know, I always thought Cindy Morgan was kinda cute:

Indeed - it's very poorly explained... whoever created it seems to
assume too much about the reader :) it doesn't even explain what Tron
is (which for someone like me who never watched Tron, makes the entire
page pretty senseless). on the surface of it, it just looks like some
electronic goobers stuffed into a backpack for no discernable reason.

not that i'm really too bothered.. one of my friends once tried to
'initiate' me into Tron, he failed miserably ;)

OMG, it's Peter Griffin!

The TRON thing is a game based on the TRON bikes, which in the movie
left a wall behind them. If another bike ran into this wall, it would be
destroyed.

Just in case:
Peter Griffin is the main character in "Family Guy", a cartoon on the
FOX network.

Yeah, not all of us have been kitted out with one of these things called, I think, a "brian" (I
could have mis-spelled that)

Two words for him - gut and gaffer-tape. Ok, maybe that's three words.

It's not the front he should be worried about: I've never seen an arse that
has a double chin, before.

Then you've obviously never had a sauna with John "Two-Jags" "Scooby-Doo's Ugly Twin" Prescott!

Err, and neither have I! Doh...

Even if I had, I wouldn't know what his arse looks like, I'd be too busy
watching his fists in case he lamped me.
