I'm thinking of removing the references to newer tech - the VCR is actually older than anything else we've seen, and given the size of the station and the multiple video screens, it makes sense to have a VCR instead of film and a projector like in The Swan. Also, both computers used the same serifed fonts - they are not different. Thoughts? --The CyberSlug 21:43, 24 May 2006 (PDT)
I second that. Both stations were persumably built in the eighties, and u-matic tapes were available starting from 1969. Plus, there's another contradiction, on top of the serif font on the Swan computer- the Swan's orientation film contains an older Mark Wickman, even though it uses an older technology to hold the footage. --AlienChickenPie 06:56, 24 July 2006 (PDT)
Disk drives[]
The Swan computer doesn't have disk drives, does it? - GoodRom 15:41, 1 December 2006 (PST)
Perhaps the Pearl Computer has a Swan logo to reflect the fact that it monitors the Swan's computer, and not a prop reuse goof or production mistake at all. - GoodRom 15:47, 1 December 2006 (PST)
Merge[]
- Merge: I don't see the mean of having an own article for this equipment
--Wilbraham Williams 09:03, 26 May 2007 (PDT)
- Don't merge because the computer is a significant item which deserves its own article. -- Lost Soul talk contribs 01:19, 1 June 2007 (PDT)
- Merge: The computer itself has had very little effect on the overall storyline of Lost. --Bltsponge June 27 07:49PM EST
- Merge: Theres already a section which discusses the computer in the main Pearl Station article --Hotgirl 17:04, 28 July 2007 (PDT)
- Don't Merge As Lost Soul said, it is a significant item and therefore should have it's own article.-- Dan talk contribs email 05:45, 31 August 2007 (PDT)
- Don't Merge - This item is more important than many other items with their own articles so I defintely think this needs to to stay. random2502 11:31, 3 September 2007 (PDT)
- Don't Merge - The Swan computer has its own article, so this computer should as well. --CTS 19:27, 2 March 2008 (PST)
- Merge because this computer is of less importance than the Swan computer that was in many shows with the numbers. -- LOSTonthisdarnisland 21:43, 21 March 2008 (PDT)
- Merge There's nothing really important about this computer --Kemot from Poland 04:44, 27 May 2008 (PDT)
