Yeah, Miami is kind of the comic book edition of CSI.

I liked how as the machine is being wiped, some special program is 
running to track the source of the killer signal, which requires the 
person running the program to type at high speed, putting out enough 
characters to fill a good Patricia Cornwell novel.  When it is all done 
and the hard drive has been wiped, this program still exists and has the 
ability to show the source of the killer signal -- by coincidence, not 
an IP address or network node, but a street address that matches the 
office of the bad guys.  I should be so lucky to have such a machine to 
do my work. . .
