Fictional computers may be depicted as considerably more sophisticated than anything yet devised in the real world. Fictional computers may be referred to with a made-up manufacturer's brand name and model number or a nickname.

This is a list of computers or '''fictional artificial intelligences''' that have appeared in notable works of [[fiction]]. The work may be about the computer, or the computer may be an important element of the story. Only static computers are included.
