* Many RealLife computers (other than Windows) [[UnreadablyFastText display a couple of screens full of text too fast to be actually read when booted]]. Linux installations typically show much more. In the old days, starting was so slow that the text could be read and technically oriented users often actually understood it. Watching someone use VI or Emacs can also be quite confusing, and using the text console can often lead to a screen full of confusing text.

* ''Film/TheMatrix'' ''Film/TheMatrix'': The MatrixRainingCode provides any information required for the plot without the burden of a conventional user interface: Less danger of the UI becoming dated or too hard for the audience to follow. It is there to be visually evocative --the audience gets their information from the characters talking about it.

The configuration menu also passes off as rather cryptic to the average computer user; pity the poor soul who selects "Software Emulation" and ends up playing the game at slideshow frame rates.
