The Movie Anti-Trust features a very large software company called N.U.R.V. under investigation from the U.S. Department of Justice. It's basically a spin on Microsoft's dealings with the DoJ, except with N.U.R.V. in the place of Microsoft. Also, N.U.R.V.'s founder, Gary Winston, is eerily similar to Microsoft's Bill Gates.

N.U.R.V? Sounds rather Evangelion-ish.

I agree it sounds very much like evangelion. Just got done watching the first two DVDs last night in fact.
