Starring The Computer
Online resource is the IMDB of appearances by computers in film and television:
Starring the Computer is a website dedicated to the use of computers in film and television. Each appearance is catalogued and rated on its importance (ie. how important it is to the plot), realism (how close its appearance and capabilities are to the real thing) and visibility (how good a look does one get of it). Fictional computers don’t count (unless they are built out of bits of real computer), so no HAL9000 - sorry.
Above are:
- Columbo (IBM AN/FSQ-7)
- Ghostbusters (DEC Rainbow 100)
- The Thing (Intertec Superbrain)
- Tron (Apple III)
- Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (Siemens System 4004)
- Airplane II (Commodore Vic-20)
- Big (Unisys PW2 Series 500)
- Futureworld (IBM AN/FSQ-7)
