I thought everyone knew that the O/S at Stargate command was HP-IPL/OS
running on 2113's.

Subject: HP computers on Stargate SG-1
So I'm watching old Stargate SG-1 episodes getting
ready for the
upcoming movies, and in a scene from Season 2 episode 20 titled "Show
and Tell" I find:

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?
