   The font you are referring to can be found in the ftp archives of
   cica.cica.indiana.edu [129.79.20.22] in the file:
   /ftp/pub/pc/win3/fonts/atm/crillee.zip.

That's the one used in "Star Trek: The Next Generation."  The old
series did in fact use Microgramma Bold Extended for a number of
things.  You can buy it from Adobe if you want: Order the "Eurostile"
package (Eurostile is Microgramma with the addition of lower case
letters).
