 CDC 6000 Historical Background
Therefore, the CDC 6500 had to shoulder the computing burden for the vast majority of the roughly 50,000 students and faculty on campus.
The 3600, which had been acquired in 1963, was the world's most powerful commercially-available computer at the time (I believe), but it certainly did not hold that title when it was retired and sold in 1974.
Incidentally, the 3600 was a 48-bit machine compared with the 24-bit 3300 I used in high school, and the computers were not closely related.

CDC is conducting several activities which bear directly on the implementation of the statement.
Second, CDC is aggressively pursuing research and development efforts in collaboration with several instrument manufacturers to develop a field-rugged, relatively inexpensive, and simple-to-operate blood lead instrument, which would markedly enhance blood lead screening efforts.
Finally, CDC also has a grant program in childhood lead poisoning prevention, through which state and local health agencies receive Federal money to screen children for lead poisoning, ensure environmental and medical followup for poisoned children, and provide education about lead poisoning.

 AN ENGINEERING VIEW OF THE LRL OCTOPUS COMPUTER NETWORK
It is a first cousin to the CDC 3000-series channel and has remained basically unchanged except for expanding the data path to 36 bits for higher bandwidth.
Expansion to a full network by direct links from this concentrator to the CDC worker machines is possible but rather unlikely and unwarranted at present, considering the impending implementation of the RJET Network with its higher performance communications capability and direct connection to each worker machine.
Connection to each CDC worker machine will be via one of the subports on the Selector Adapter similar to the Teletype Network connections.
