Is the "magic box" in Lost in actual fact BERTHA THE LOVELY MACHINE?

[CaptainWacky]

Bertha, lovely Bertha,
You are a lovely machine,
And anyone who works with you will know just what I mean.
Whoa...
Bertha, lovely Bertha,
Sometimes I think you're a dream;
When we work out what you have to do
You can always turn the goods out,
Always turn the goods out:
We can depend upon you.
Clicking in the day, flashing in the night,
Your computer is shining brightly.
Some people say you've a mind of your own,
And I think that's very likely, likely.

No, it's not.

MENTY WOULD APPRECIATE THSI

Is Bertha the name of your computer? Mine is NICE DOGGY.

 

[CaptainWacky]

No it's the name of a mid eighties children's tv show beloved by all (who were children in the mid eighties.)

I remember it, although I was a little older.

Not to old to spank the monkey to Bertha!
