"It's getting fantastic people from I.T. and banking - people that [those industries] wouldn't normally be able to employ." But Gibson says the brain drain from old-guard companies may not last.

Some of the shots are indeed very cheap; the blatant racism between Ronnie and a Middle Eastern salesman and the band of misfits that make up Ronnie’s security guard crew (complete with a Hispanic second in command, incompetent Asian twins, and a shy redhead) are nothing new.
