Browsing through Hulu, I came across a little serial series, "The Mercury Men" ( http://www.hulu.com/the-mercury-men ). It's a throwback to 40s-style science fiction serials.

Episode 2 (at 06:22) contains a curious scene in which a protagonist uses what looks to be a DeciLon to compute the impact of a villainous scheme. The slide rule usage is juxtaposed with his use of a pocket holographic orrery (imagine the implicit computing power there).

"You're an engineer?" asks one of the actors, "with a gun?"

And a slide rule, I might add.
