I think passwords should spin, and any right characters you try should make that digit stop spinning, to let you know that character was right. That would put things more in line with the movies and make hacking a lot more fun.

OMG! Could this be a way to make linux the most widely used OS? Write a GUI that looks like the computers on TV? Although you would need a monitor that projected the text onto the user's face.
