Computer in Wyatt's room in "Weird Science"

    This afternoon, I watched the movie Weird Science for the thousandth
time, and I have a question. Early in the movie, when Gary and Wyatt are
first "building" Lisa, they are working at an all-black computer with two
monitors (one is a green-screen and the other looks like a 19" color
monitor). The system does not look familiar. Remembering the thread about
the "War Games" computers, does anyone know:

    1. Who made the computer on the desk? You can briefly see a logo on
the front which looks like "TDK".
    2. Which system(s) did they use to create the wire-frame graphics?

    The movie is (c) 1985 if that helps placing the technology. War Games is
(c) 1983.
