Williams tubes

The IBM 701 is stated to have 1024 bits / tube. This article for the 702 says 1000 bits / tube. I am guessing that should also be 1024 bits. Wizzy…☎ 17:26, 28 November 2010 (UTC)Reply

The 702 was decimal and thus the tubes probably held 1000 bits each. I was at IBM just a bit later and the lore was that the 702 was withdrawn because the Williams tubes were not sufficiently reliable for business applications. NormHardy (talk) 06:49, 8 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just modified one external link on IBM 702. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:

Added archive https://web.archive.org/web/20030216135550/http://www.computer50.org/kgill/williams/williams.html to http://www.computer50.org/kgill/williams/williams.html

When you have finished reviewing my changes, you may follow the instructions on the template below to fix any issues with the URLs.
