[edit] Words/ft³ or bits/ft³?

> It could store 16 bit words at a density of 36,864 per cubic foot [...]

Hmm, that statement seems a little ambigous to me---see the subject heading. --Wernher 05:00, 9 Jun 2005 (UTC)

36,864 – 16-bit words per cubic foot... -- 205.175.225.5 01:31, 3 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Density reported low?

I don't think the density figures are correct; the actual density of the AGC memory was higher. I believe what has happened is that the density is computed as the capacity divided by the volume of the entire AGC, rather than just the volume of the core rope memory or core memory sections. --Brouhaha 20:27, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
