This computer was one of the early computers fully transistorized which show significant improvements in the speed of operation and the storage capacity. Developed by MIT researchers in 1956 and was widely used in institutions and business companies in the 1960s. This 18-bit computer relied on a magnetic core memory for storage. The capacity was just 46K which was considered as a large memory space during its time. There was a considerable increase in speed compared to its predecessors as it could complete an add operation in 10ms. Click here for more information.
