The Computer Lab is Part of your Hideout

This is your hideout computer lab. There's enough space in the computer lab for two computers. Your current computer setup consists of:

With nothing installed

Computer Bay 1
No computer installed

Computer Bay 2
No computer installed

Change computer setup: Install a (electronic/positronic computer) into (computer bay 1/2) (Install Now)

or

You don't have any computers to install at this time.

With Computer(s) Installed

Computer Bay 1
Electronic computer or Positronic computer
Running: (Update software on Both Computers)

Computer Bay 2
Electronic or Positronic computer
Running:

Change computer setup:
Install a (electronic/positronic computer) into (computer bay 1/2) (Install Now)

or

You don't have any computers to install at this time.

Decrypting

You plug the <item> into your computer and tell it to start decrypting. The software says it will probably require X minutes of uninterrupted work to finish the decryption. (Added for X minutes.)

Notes

  • Trying to decrypt an item while another is already decrypted, or while the software running is incorrect (for example from another window) yields:

You can only decrypt an item if the computer is currently running decryption software and isn't busy doing some heavy decrypting at the moment. Either you're not running the right software, or the computer is busy, so it's not gonna work for you right now.

  • You cannot replace a computer that is currently decrypting.
