Ahhhhh, I see now, the computer connection. In that case, I suggest the following the/. with good taste:
Wargames [First modem]
Lawnmower Man 1&2 [The second one is even better!]

Swordfish [First demonstration of how the average programmer codes & a badguy's last name is Torvalds]
Anything with "VR" in the title
And many many more! Yay computers in movies!
