TermOS/ThinkDOS Explanation (Request?)

It seems however that it only works when it's put in the "Control" databank, in any other databank it doesn't work.

Well no the name of the bank doesn't matter.
I guess the real problem is that I keep forgetting that the zeta derelict is still on the map and can't work up the effort to make it more reliably repairable.

Also the whole "only one APC for both the mainframe and databanks" thing is probably grumping it up.
