Guess it's apparent why dialing the gate takes so long. They have not
upgraded the computers since the 70s. Looks like an HP-2112 or 2113 to
me. The hard drive below it is newer than my HP-7901 drives. I'm
guessing HP-7905 or HP-7906.
Anyone see any other vintage computers on the set?
There was one early episode of SG-1 in which an RL01/RL02 disk
pack, painted gray, was fastened to a wall and used as a door
opener. One would pull the handle down and back up, and the door
would open.
