YES! Why is it that every search algorithm always flashes through every picture/fingerprint/etc? I guess the monitor has to "see" the image to compare it, right?

It's required! Even in real life!
I once wrote a program to search a train yard for a boxcar. The operators would wait 15 seconds (the program required 30) and would reset the computer, complained it wasn't working.
I added a display of the boxcar it was comparing against making it take 45 seconds, the response? "Charlie get in here! Look at how fast it is!"
I wanted to cry.

The character inserts a disk and immediately a dialog pops up, saying "Disk encrypted". Yeah, right! 
And then it segues into another cliche - the hero guesses the password in seconds!
I love go-o-o-o-ld!

I have never seen a computer wiz in movies to search for a command on Google. How can they remember everything? Hell, I still from time to time need to check ConnectionStrings.com.
Another thing is that their programs just run with no issues. There is no debugging or testing effort.

That's not in script screenplay because writers don't know much about software world.

I know it was the worst but I really agreed with about five of those options:

I hold an A-7 computer expert classification, Commodore. I'm well acquainted with Dr. Daystrom's theories and discoveries. The basic design of all our ship's computers are JavaScript.

I really shouldn't - I actually have an autographed picture of the Shat on my office wall that my daughter got me  .

Almost all the computers, in all the films, (Not all, I know) are NON Windows (Apple usually).
It is very unusual to see Windows programs when the good and bad guys are cracking, programming, working, copying, pissing off...
How can be it possible, if more than 90% (near 93% as I know) are Windows OS?

Seeing Windows a lot more now that Microsoft is paying sponsorship fees to shows like Elementary and Arrow...trying to use subliminal messages to make us like WinRT...

According to the 1996's "The independence day" Earth-made notebooks could easily interface even with alien computer systems.

Don't forget Stargate...they had all kinds of crappy laptops interfaced to Stargates, ships, knowledge systems...kinda wondering how they translated to Unicode

I always wondered about that electroacoustimechanical interface that R2D2 uses to interface with the ship.

Can't watch NCIS or CSI shows for that very reason...

Can't stand those shows either, its because every time I see a bit of the show, they are always enhancing some picture and getting the rego of a car from some reflected object.
But, it was totally cool when Harrison Ford did it in Blade Runner.

And downloading data takes ages before it will be completely stored in a single floppy disk?!
