(...) I'm hoping that that piece will be the equivalent of the "wedge 2x6x1 curved top": (URL) last year. I first saw it in the SW Cloud Car set, but it quickly appeared in a variety of colors in Alpha Team, Racer, and many other sets (it was (...) (22 years ago, 18-Feb-03, to lugnet.year.2003)

(...) If I remember correctly from the movie, the computer the assistant operated was indeed a Windows. So, technically speaking, it is movie accurate. Nathan (drooling over the new Spiderman sets even though I never read the comic) Wells (22 years ago, 18-Feb-03, to lugnet.year.2003)

(...) Actually I don't believe that is a completely new piece. It also appears in the UCS Naboo fighter that was release last year. And don't worry there are various colors of it in the Make-n-Create sets as well. jt (22 years ago, 18-Feb-03, to lugnet.year.2003)

(...) Yeah, but if that's a Windows machine, I think it's got an error message window up at the moment. (At least the geometry and placement of the central window suggests it.) But it's actually nice to have a new "real" computer screen. Neat! LFB (22 years ago, 18-Feb-03, to lugnet.year.2003)

(...) Hmm, I dunno. Could be any modern (or even semi-modern) GUI. Or is there something specifically microsofty that I'm missing? (22 years ago, 18-Feb-03, to lugnet.year.2003, lugnet.off-topic.geek)

Check out this photo: (URL) computer (printed 2x2 slope) looks to me like it is specifically Windows. Bill Gates is even starting to control the Legoverse. Bruce (22 years ago, 18-Feb-03, to lugnet.year.2003)
