Trivia

The song "Pumpin' For Jill" by Iggy Pop is used in this episode in three different places. At the beginning when Chuck is at Stanford in 2003, during his "Jill '03 Mix" fade into the present time, and at the end when Chuck comes out of the conference room having saved the day.

Goofs

At the Bio Science Conference, Chuck sets the network up with 10-Base-T Ethernet, connecting all the servers, which would be 10/100 or Pro/100 minimum in 2008 and Gigabit probably. And the computer under the desk does have an RJ-45 port on it.
