Messing with a hypothetical Computers page. Might lead somewhere.

The station is littered with computers, which basically fall into two categories:

  • Normal computers, built around a circuit board providing all the software. Any computer with a GUI, basically.
  • Heavy computers and Terminals. Either can run ThinkDOS or TermOS just fine, but pre-built terminals tend to run TermOS while heavy computers run ThinkDOS.

Want to build one? Check out the guide.


Normal computers

Where the hoi polloi go to put in requests for the Quartermaster to fill.
Barcode Computer

If you want a computer to connect to a network, it needs two things: A network card, and to be built on top of one of these.
DWAINE Terminal
Terminal.png
Found in Artifact Lab and the RD's Office. Are these different from a home-built terminal at all?
Personal Computer
File:Personalcomputer
A computer running ThinkDOS, with a sound synthesizer module, a terminal card (network/printer combo) and e-mail software installed.
Communications Console
File:CommConsole
A ThinkDOS computer with COMMaster pre-installed basically. Used to call the Emergency Shuttle. The Bridge has two, and it's quite possible to build your own if the Bridge is gone.
Medical Computer
File:Medcomp.png
Found in Medbay and the Bridge. Actually a ThinkDOS computer running MedTrak. Heck if I know what this actually does???
