Hmm, i've actually seen that episode yesterday here on German TV.
"Bezaubernde Jeannie", as they call it here, is a definitve MUST for me

The "Computer" (called "Eric" in the german version) looked like
something thrown together, mostly older IBM stuff i would say.
The console looked like one from a smaller '360.
The typewriter "the Master" used was definitively an IBM
