Favorite computer that Captain Kirk destroyed?

[Deja Q]

Poll question: Favorite computer that Captain Kirk destroyed?

And, at least from initial run, he didn't outwit the Nielsen 1000... :evilgrin:

1. Norman, of course...

...though Mudd gets a lot of credit for his delivery of the killer line: "Listen carefully, Norman. I'm lying."



edit: The more I think about it, though, the more I like M-5's decision to "die," which is all the more affecting for the significant pause and the flat delivery of the lines. It's pretty damned cool that via pure logic, M-5 arrived at a moral conclusion that eluded his creator.

3. But Kirk planned it all!

:D

4. Cap'n Dunsel supplied the drama as well as the logic, yeah.

Oops: and much of the illogic, presumably.

2. Nomad was a bad ass.

5. What about the Oracle?

7. Just another computer of many - I only had 8 choices plus Spock...

:D

On TOS, it was like an enemy computer every third week. :7

Not that that was a bad thing, those 1960s fears rocked and were played up as OTT as possible... they weren't entirely wrong, but not entirely right either.

10. Scary horn

I may have chosen the oracle, too. Although I like the war room in "A taste of Armageddon." I'm a sucker for gear noises and smoke in my computers. Out of the list, I think you have to say it takes a real captian to take out a papier mache god!

6. I have an actual piece of equipment in my lab called an "M-5"...

So I had to pick that choice. I can't see this equipment without thinking about Star Trek...

[Deja Q]

8. The M-5 rocked... it threatened to put the ultimate CEO, Kirk's ego, out of business.

:wow:

:rofl:

17. This unit must survive. A phrase we repeated from the time the kids were born

until they grew up and moved out. lol

9. Denny Crane in Space?

:rofl: :hi:

11. you forgot that time Kirk beat Deep Blue in chess 9 straight times....

[Fire Walk With Me]

12. You're forgetting to credit Shatner's toupee for that brilliant move in game 3.

Unforgettable, that was.

[DarkTirade]

13. I would have called it crazy, not brilliant... but since it worked...

:shrug:

[harmonicon]

14. I voted "nomad", because I like that episode

however, I'm not sure if nomad counts as a computer or not.

[jobycom]

15. hehe! Only you could post this poll!

:rofl:

[Fire Walk With Me]

16. Proper (rolled "rrr") English would be "Your favorite computer that was destroyed by Captain Kirk?"

hhhmph. snif.
