This computer is located inside the Pearl hatch. It has the same basic configuration as the Station 3 Computer, with the addition of a dot-matrix printer. In "?", Locke discovers its screen to be displaying the prompt "Print log? Y/N". Upon entering "Y", the computer's printer outputs the log printout.

Notes

The Swan Orientation film stated that since the incident, all protocol has been observed. Meaning that the pearl monitored the Swan in two ways: first by watching the participants on the screens and second by using their computer to know whether or not and when they have pressed the button in the swan.
This is presumably the same prop as the Station 3 Computer, as evidenced by the Swan logo on the monitor.
In keeping with the rest of the vintage Apple hardware, the printer is an Imagewriter II, first produced in 1985.
