And it is always a word that makes sense, either "LetMeIn" or "Secret" 
or the name of somebody/something important to the film "joshua".

How about "dFXq93s5ka$fP" for a password?


Best wishes,

Rick.

PS: And funny how a massively powerful military computer happens to have
     the exact same speech synth as an IMSAI 8080; not to mention that it
     had no speech facility until required by the plot... Maybe David
     stashed his synth in a pocket and plugged it into one of the
     terminals when nobody was looking? It's amazing the things you can
     do in films - I bet plugging a SATA cable into a USB port, or
     running a SCSI harddisc from a serial port would "just work", no
     problem with interfaces, not even a need to find the right drivers!
