Other mistake: When Nick thinks he is going to be promoted he talks to his PAs about moving to the 44th floor. In the shot of the office building (after he leaves the coffee shop on the way to work) it's obvious that the building only has about 10 floors.
What Women Want (2000)
1 other mistake - chronological order
Directed by: Nancy Meyers
Starring: Mel Gibson, Marisa Tomei, Helen Hunt, Alan Alda, Lauren Holly, Mark Feuerstein, Ashley Johnson
Continuity mistake: At the beginning, when Lauren Holly is explaining about her ex-husband, the little boy has a photo taken with all the girls. The woman on the far left opens her jacket in a flasher style, but in the actual picture, her hands are on her hips.
Alex: Oh please, Mom had this talk with me when I was like, 11.
Trivia: You may have gotten a twitch of deja vu when he exited the building in the rain, with the camera facing south toward the Chicago Board of Trade building.

Answer: Apple PowerBooks of the time (around 1999 to 2001) had the logo the right way up to the user when closed, supposedly to prioritise the experience of the user over that of onlookers. According to former Apple employee Joe Moreno, Steve Jobs later changed his mind and after 2001, Apple notebooks had the logo right way up when opened.
