Its quite possible; in fact I think it said something about it on some of the spoilers, Maybe Atlantis was supposed to be the Ancients "pride and joy" and therefore they placed their newest technogoly in the city (just like a certain ancient city we saw in the beginning of Season 7) maybe that included a new type of dialing out device-a computer
Maybe put some spoiler warnings though, a lot of people seem to be pretty touchy about them
Jackson: Hathor was the Egyptian goddess of fertility, inebriety, and music.
O'Neill: Sex, drugs, and rock and roll?

Hopefully this computer will let the team unlock some nifty new features of this new gate network. You can see it for a breif moment in a trailer when Weir orders McKay to dial the gate.Dark Helmet: So, Lone Starr, now you see that evil will always triumph because good is dumb.
Dark Helmet: No, it's not what you think. It's much, much worse!
Col. Sandurz: Prepare for light speed.
Dark Helmet: No, no, light speed is too slow.
Col. Sandurz: Light speed too slow?
Dark Helmet: Yes, we'll have to go right to...Ludicrous speed!
Col. Sandurz:Ludicrous speed! Sir, we've never gone that fast before. I don't think the ship can take it.
Dark Helmet: What's the matter, Colonel Sandurz...CHICKEN?!

I pledge allegiance to the underworld
One nation under dog
There of which I stand alone
A face in the crowd
Unsung, against the mold
Without a doubt
Singled out
The only way I know

I guess we're working with levels of Ancient. If the Milky Way gates (the SG-1 gates) are billions of years old, I guess that means the Ancient tech on Atlantis is only.... a few hundred million years old??
I mean, if they'd been aroudn for millions of years, imagine how much old and conflicting levels of tech must still exist. Eventually, they evolved past the need for any of it and became Ascended. I wonder how much of that we'll see in Atlantis.

WHat about the other gates in the Pegasus Galaxy. Will they have the standard DHD? Maybe it will have a big blue button rather than a red one Now that I think of it, what do the other gates look like? I think I read the Gate in Atlantis is the only advanced gate, and the other will be normal, but will they have blue chevons? on the atlantis advertisement posters, screensaver, press edition preview dvd, Stargate from that theatre etc. all have a normal gate but with blue chevrons.My non-stargate related site: The Rabbit Archive

I'm hoping that all of the gates in the Pegasus galaxy will be advanced. The DHD is probably just a compact movable computer -- similar to the DHDs in the Mikly Way. I hope that they get rid of the big red button though. I think that the promo-gate looks similar to the old gate is because they didn't have a prototype of the new gate to picture.Dark Helmet: So, Lone Starr, now you see that evil will always triumph because good is dumb.

In my opinion, the Atlantis DHD should look quite similar to the SG-1 DHD. The differences should be:
1. Different symbols (because the Gate has different symbols).
2. Instead of a big red button, there should be a big dark blue button (think about it, on SG-1, the chevrons are orange, and the button is red, which is a darker shade of orange)
3. They should remember to only press six symbols before the center button (not really a difference in the way it looks, but it really bugs me)
