In MWO : waiting to find out, Command console currently takes a crit and a few tons..that's all it does at the moment but from the twitter posts I guess there's going function(s) given to it instead of it's current placeholder status.
In TT : Targeting computer allows you to "call" you shot to a location or gives you a better hit modifier if you don't call your shot. Command console is a akin to a second set of controls from what I undertand.

CTR and C3 I always felt were a bit overpowered in TT.

CC allows you to have someone piggy back on your video feed and go into the map independant of your action and set waypoints, etc.
the TC I have heard some good suggestions including overlaying the hitboxes on targeted mechs and giving you a lead reticule. (both would be a bit OP IMO, but cool considering the tonnage spent.
None of this is going to happen of course, but that would be how I would like it!

Command Console
Targeting Computer
In MW3, this is what the Targeting Computer did:

(You can tell this player is using a TC, since a small green circle appears over the component they are targeting, thus showing them where to aim)
Bonus, MW3 also had working C3 Computers in a way:

as for the Command console, i basically fail to see how that helps in anyway.

I would guess that since these are support electronics and not an ECM suite that they will be given ECM counter capabilities like other support electronics have
