    I love in Tomorrow is Yesterday, when the computer "malfunctions" by flirting with Kirk. That's the best. They should do that again.

    Nolan North, he is the only option I can think of.

    Excellent suggestion, was just going to make it also. Nancy Pelosi'd be a great choice too. And Candice Bergen... definitely an older, classy lady.

    I'd like Judi Durand or Adrienne Barbeau.

    Not that I'm hoping for this, obviously, but I have to point out that for Mr. Rain, that might not be much longer - he'll be 85 this year. (I saw him on stage nearly 15 years ago at the Shaw Festival in Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario, in a production of Heartbreak House. Amazing actor.)

    How about Lisa Edelstein?

    Eddie Izzard. The right answer is always Eddie Izzard.

    Speaking of Apple, the last film did a shout out to Nokia - I wonder if they will do any product placements this go around?

    It would be cool to see either Apple or Samsung in this flick.

    Also, Kirk should drink a coke.

    No. A computer voice that could one day be tossing off shield stats and warp core breach warnings must have a bit of a brass twang to it, as Majel's did. Sirtis has a lovely voice, but no twang.

    I would LOL if the PADDs had the Apple logo on them.

    Considering how much this movie is costing to make ($185 million), a little product placement is almost a certainty. Perhaps some of those flying cars will have familiar manufacturers.

    Given the cost of making movies today, it's inevitable that they'll need product placement to help with the financing.

    I think we will get to see Marina's take on the voice; just saying.

    I thought Lynneanne Zager did a fine job.

    Serious thought: how about John Billingsley? His Phlox voice is immediately recognizable but I think he could do a computer voice quite well.
