	univac solid state (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		The UNIVAC Solid State was a 2-address, bi-quinary coded decimal computer, with memory on a rotating drum with 5000 signed 10 digit words, spinning at 17,667 RPM in a helium atmosphere.
		It was announced by Sperry Rand in December 1958, as a response to the IBM 650.
		With 20 vacuum tubes, 700 transistors, and 3000 FERRACTOR amplifiers in its CPU, the Solid State was one of the first computers to use solid state components.

		UNIVAC was first intended for the Bureau of the Census, which paid for much of the development, and then was put in production.
		UNIVAC was one of the eight major computer companies (with IBM - the largest, Burroughs, Scientific Data Systems, Control Data Corporation, General Electric, RCA and Honeywell) through most of the 1960s.
		The UNIVAC 1103 was a successor to the UNIVAC 1101 introduced in 1953.

	The history of the Mainframe
		The machine was one of the first to use solid state components in its central processing unit.
		The UNIVAC Solid State Computer came in two versions: the Solid State 80 handled IBM-style 80 column cards, while the Solid State 90 was adapted for Remington Rand's 90 column cards.
		UNIVAC announced the 1107(actually completed in 1962) with the EXEC I operating system which occupied about 8K of the 1107's 32K of memory.

	UNIVAC FAQ
		The UNIVAC was also the first computer to come equipped with a magnetic tape unit and was the first computer to use buffer memory.
		One reason UNIVAC became popular is that it was shown on television in 1952 to predict the presidential election.
		Another reason the UNIVAC became famous is that it was the first computer to be "mass produced" and although only 46 of the first model were made, many other computers in the Remington Rand (later Sperry Rand) line used the name UNIVAC also.

	Computers 1962 UNIVAC III Remington
		Once the name UNIVAC was applied to other computer models, such as the 1103, the original was called the UNIVAC I. It was followed in 1958 by the UNIVAC II and in 1962 by the UNIVAC III, which was the end of the line.
		The UNIVAC III project was started in the Philadelphia division of Sperry Rand in 1958 to be a transistorized replacement for the vacuum tube UNIVAC II.
		Although the UNIVAC III was announced in the spring of 1960, the first one was not delivered until June 1962.

		The Univac I used vacuum tube technology with a delay line memory through mercury and magnetic tape for storage (it was designed for business applications and so did decimal arithmetic and handled alphabetic information).
		Univac Solid State used magnetic amplifier technology with a high speed drum for memory and punched card storage.
		Univac Larc used transister technology with overlapping modules of ferrite core memory for faster access and a programmable I/O handler.

		The UNIVAC Solid State Computer was one of the first to use solid state components in its central processing unit.
		The Solid State computer had three ten-digit arithmetic registers, referred to as A, X, and L. Their use varied according to the operation being performed.
		It is unfortunate that the Solid State was not marketed sooner, so that more could have been sold before the arrival of the IBM 1401.

	Books & Reading: Chapter One
		That would not have happened were it not for advances in solid state physics, which provided a way of putting the circuits of a computer on a few chips of silicon.
		The UNIVAC and its successors could operate that way, but they could also perform a long sequence of operations on a single datum before fetching the next record from memory.
		Before providing a description of the UNIVAC, it is worth a brief look at the essentials of the architecture that von Neumann described in his 1945 report, especially those aspects of it that have remained stable through the past half-century of computer design.

		The Remington Rand UNIVAC Solid State computer was developed in response to the IBM 650.
		Since the Solid State was faster and more capable than the IBM 650, sales were brisk during 1959 and 1960.
		But the market life of the Solid State was cut short by the announcement of the IBM 1401 in October 1959.

		The Univac manufacturing facility at that time was on the second floor of this ugly, ugly warehouse, and there were four assembly stations.

		Furthermore, although mathematical problems could generally be stated and solved using only fixed and floating-point data representation, data-processing problems required a system that permitted the description of user-defined data types.
