I wouldn't mind, but I'd rather sit on the bridge of the Excelsior.  Sulu really deserved his own series.  I bet he would have been the coolest captain.

I was always a fan of the Enterprise D in generations. Or perhaps the one in "All Good Things" or in the one with the like 50,000 alternate universes. (forget the name). BUt there was one with a really badass clear display behind tactical. That one rocked. lol

The one I'd like to see in person is the ent refit or the ent A.  Next in line would be the excelsior. 
I'm dissapointed that they replaced TNG with voyageur, which blew chunkie chunks.  Sulu was a much better choice with the excelsior.  I think Takei is an underappreciated actor, and would have done wonders for a show. 
Enterprise is tolerable, although I am annoyed to no end with the mid october beginning of season, and as of last week they're already started on friggin reruns of the damn show.  I tell you, the show must be dying on all fronts.

Did You know that When Takei Was a Little Kid, him and his Parents where actually in an Internment camp? I always found that Interesting esp. to hear him Talk about things now.

I'd love to see a complete and accurate mockup.

And no bloody A, B, C OR D.

I always thought it would be cool to do a whole hotel up as a starship. Complete with the corridors, crew quarters for guests, working bridge simulator etc.

Now wouldn't that be a hit with the convention crowd?

Funny thing is, my house is actually round with a large open space in the center that would make an ideal place for a bridge mockup and still have all the current rooms. I could even put in a plexi dome in the center (flat roof) and a RGB projector for the viewscreen. I've often joked to my wife that we could put the registry numbers and shipname on the roof, which is white. Except I'd be worrying that some pilot might crash after he lost control by laughing his ass off.

But that exceeds even my degree of geekiness. Plus my wife is not amused at the prospect.

Heh Years ago when we lived in Arizona, I Drew up plans to add to our house, that was laid out like a Constitution. Unfortuanlty, we Moved, but It would have been nice at the time having the Kids in a Nacelle, while the Little Lady and I relaxed in the Bridge.

  I will agree with on the most part about Sulu getting his on series it would nice as it is still in the 23C. The TOS Enterprise bridge is funckey like the 60s .I like the Bridge on 1701-A  and the refit isn't to bad .I am not sure where they have 1701 Bridge maybe at the Hilton in Las Vagas with the Star Trek Exprience there the only reason to visit Las Vagas I am guessing at this.It would be nice to see a Capt. Sulu.

What I can't understand is if there weas such an outcry for a sulu show, why not do it?  I mean, you've got the market for it, otherwise they wouldn't be asking for it, right?

I have been there- and have my picture taken in the captian's chair...

I THINK it was at the Smithsonian. I was about 15 or so. They had the transporter room and the 'center seat' on display. So I got pics of me in the chair and in the transporter room.

Hmmm...... after reading the article, I think it would be a great idea!  Always liked George.

As for which bridge? I'd like to be on the bridge of the Merchantman with the Klingon cutie ......... Um .......... on second thought..... skip it.  ;D
