I don't know the show, but I know that's an original Commodore PET computer with arguably the WORST keyboard in mass market computing history.
He's a close up of this "war crime" of an atrocity.
Note. Later versions of this computer came out with a more normal Qwerty keyboard.
That's pretty rough in a lot of ways, but man would that make ASCII box-drawing easier.
it really does! This was the case with the grandchild of the Commodore Pet, the very popular Commodore 64. Check out all the extra characters on the SIDES of the keys:
So many ASCII sprites baked right into the hardware and OS.
