[QUOTE]Originally posted by Siegfried: [QB] That's a good post, Lance. I agree with you on some points and disagree with you on some points. I agree with you that the Enterprise design is not all that original. It [i]may possibly[/i] not be a design fitting for the 22nd century, but that an arguable point because the only ship design we know about for that period is the Daedalus class. One starship design of the many possible isn't all that good a representative sample. But I must disagree that the new series is going to be inconsistent with TOS and that TOS looks hokey. The Original Series is 35 years old. It reflects the quality of set and prop design for that era. In another 20 years, we're going to start saying the same thing about The Next Generation. That what the realist part of says in regards to TOS. The part of me that suspends disbelief says that TOS shows a logical step in the advancement of technology. I mean, look at how so much of the ship was controlled by consoles with so few buttons. The computer voice and paper printers do not bug me at all. This is supposed to be the age of the paperless office and it isn't. I don't see a problem with Spock pulling off a hard copy of something from his scanner. But no matter how much we argue the point, we must all accept that we will not be able to adequately judge Enterprise until it airs. The people who like it will continue to hold discussions on the vary aspects of each episode in the forums. The people who don't like it will either not watch it or watch it for the sole purpose of berating it. But the main thing that we should remember is that Star Trek has been about people. People working together, living together, and growing together. That facet of the Trek universe has been evident to some extent in all of the series, and I believe that Enterprise will continue the tradition as well. [/QB][/QUOTE]
