Need't it be? :-) :-) :-) ? I was told that the SMS2000 Carmellan rebreather's
onboard computer was the innards of a PC complete with a data storage that
functioned as a C: drive (but not actually rotating), and it could have run

`wet computer' in the intervals of it looking after the rebreather's controls.
