The Datum Center Computers are what maintain an internet connection in Free Country, USA, particularly the one used by Strong Bad to read his emails. They appear to be kept in the garage, yet have not been seen there previously. They look like any mid '90s computer tower but have a picture of Bubs' face. It also seems that bandwidth can be sucked right out of them with a garden hose. When Strong Mad sucks bandwidth in this way, his voice is affected similarly to how most voices are affected by helium.
The 3D model of one of these computer towers shown on the hidden page localhtmell shows that there are additional Bubs logos on each side and at the back there is a modem port that boasts speed of one baud, three status lights of unknown purpose, two calibration dials — typically seen on old monitors — one horizontal, one vertical and three Da Huuuge ports that resemble DB-25 ports. There's also a non-spec Swiss Cake Roll hidden inside.
