Sounds like something a TW could do, sure.

May you be blessed with the ability to change course when you are off the mark.
Each question should be give the canon answer 1st, then you can proclaim your house rules.

Actually, I guess that would only require a TW hard drive.

Sounds fine, just add some percentile rolls for exactly what scroll/spell/incantaion is displayed, with varying degrees of success. And of course the option of total failure ("Turn Dead?! I needed Fly! waisted turn )

Spell Storage on Magic Computers
IMHO, the most awesome Spell Storge Device is the Create Vajra Spell.
Linking that to a computer via Lightning Rider, Machine Merge, Telemech-
anics, Ibid, Ect. would blow any scroll-type spell away. Now with the
Spellbreather-Rifter not canon, you could make a living Magic spell-
Casting computer. TW Artificial Intelligence. Artificial Intelligence would
have to be a prerequisite if you really wanted something cool.

Well....
if you want a computer that has scrolls as txt. files, you could, but the Harddrive and RAM would crumble to dust once used.
As a TW device...doable, but you couldn't run but a handful of spells at once.

In order to copy something, a computer has to read it.
What happens when you read it?
