Mach iv comp

MACHIV.MSG, MORPCOMP.MSG (dialogue)

Mach IV computers are a series[verification needed] of computers found in Fallout.

Characteristics[]

The Mach IV computers at the Mariposa Military Base feature a stripped-down case with all the internal components, and include software for electronic notation, screensavers (falling green bombs), and password protection. Some of the ones within the Mariposa Military Base are in a state of disrepair, their screens show odd color patterns and flicker.[1] One can also be seen at Vault 15.

It is uncertain what the purpose of the computers is, but it can be inferred that they used to manage surveillance or robot control, since they are usually found together with regular Vault computers. The Vault Dweller can gain XP if they complete a Science check on these computers.[verification overdue]

Appearances[]

Mach IV computers appear in Fallout, and their wrecked versions can be found in the Mariposa Military Base ruins in Fallout 2.
