The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

I am led to believe that the box for the security key that Dallas uses reads:

MU-TH-UR Computer
Series 6000 M

I have no idea what it means either.

:D Considering all the good advice it gave them on how to kill the alien I think I wouldve called it a "mother" as well!

What does FA-TH-UR mean also???
I'm guessing the TH-UR are the same, and they made up some techno speak for the rest so it would fit in with MU-TH-UR?????

Maybe even something as simple as a product name?
