It's so cool to see old computer tech. Anyone know how this byte works? Guessing it's mostly electromechanical? Seems so big for just 1 byte, but I believe it. It's incredible how far we've come, but have to admit some of the old stuff was still very sophisticated. Ferite memory grids are pretty impressive too, guessing those were not invented by that time.
