Has anyone else noticed that Scooter's computer looks sort of like the Commodore PET?

I'd guess it was a Generico 5000 or something.

As I stated in another thread, I wonder... is it a real computer or a toy? It has cables ccoming out the back of it in certain episodes, and indeed it functions like a computer.

Not to mention the fact the Babies supposedly cannot read, yet Scooter can program the computer with flawless ease.

My little cousin could work a regular computer before he knew how to read. He just needed someone to tell him what the computer said, and he instantly knew what to do. :smile:

Maybe Scooter's computer doesn't have an internet connection since the internet wasn't popular back in the 80's.
