Mars, Veronica. S01E04
I've now seen episode four: The Wrath of Con. Of course I enjoyed it. I start seeing a little more of her and Logan (especially the foreshadowing of how hot he thought she was when they first met). The video editing was a good way to subtly bring them together.
I'm not sure how much I like their depiction of computer technology--it looked like the programmers were using Macs which no self-respecting programmer would unless they're programming just for Mac and I certainly didn't get that impression. They nerds were very much into appearances though, which fits with the Mac user profile. Also, Veronica is too good at everything. I mean, most girls I know couldn't find their own hard drive to save their life and it's OK for Veronica to know how, but she seems to know how to do everything else as well. Up until six months ago she was a trendy of above average intelligence. Now she's a specialist in all things investigative. I can see her having learned expertise in some things, but not so many.
On the murder mystery thread, I'm beginning to suspect the mother more. I'm sure that's what they wanted. But first there was her insistence on the anti-depressants for her son and now we see her blaming her daughter for everything wrong in the family and being a bit peeved at the realistic representation of her daughter in the video. It's all very mysterious, the next episode is only 29% done, and I know it wouldn't answer any major questions anyway.

I agree that it seems a little unrealistic that she would know how to do everything at this point. But at least we know her dad is a detective and that it isn't out of the question for her to have picked up some tricks of the trade. Right? I understand your point.
And funny thought about the Macs. I have no answer for that. I have noticed it seems Hollywood is quick to jump to the Mac as computer of choice. Creative and trendy? Is that why?
