The film showed that most of the "computer nerds" at the dawn of the PC were young guys who had big beards, big glasses and little to no social life. They were completly devoted to working on computers and trying to advance their ideas about what could possibly be done with them.
Some of these stereotypes still hold true, though they seem to be subdued a bit. Young guys seem to be into computers more than other groups but others do enjoy working with computers. Most nerds today seem to not completely focus on computers like they seemed to in the past. Nerds today have a much bigger, broader subculture now than they did which draws in a much wider array of people.
