I hate reading books that contain stuff about Flying or Computers that is just so wrong it has me yelling at it.

Me too, but then I've flown planes. But, as you (and I) feel about those books, I also feel about "The Firm" because the legal plot holes were so freaking HUGE!!! About as likely as a 18 year old soloing for the first time on Monday and getting his commercial pilot's license that next Friday.

I don't know that I'd call it "fluff" exactly, just a really badly thought out plot line. And, the sad thing is, it would have been a good story if the author had actually made it even marginally realistic.
