If it was done with computers there'd be a skinnable interface, and buttons would change from round to square corners and back again every six months, the messages would be light-purple-on-slightly-darker-purple, and the control panel would be at the top, then the bottom, then the left, then the right, and eventually dockable, as time went by.

Also one day you'd walk in and none of the displays or controls would be the same any more and you'd have experienced your first UI refresh of many more to come.
