Description

The article “Computer Memories” from the October 1970 issue of Electronics World likely discussed the state of computer memory technology at that time. While I couldn’t find the exact article, the context of the era suggests it would have covered topics such as the development and use of various types of memory, including magnetic core memory and the early forms of semiconductor memory like DRAM (Dynamic Random Access Memory), which Intel released in the same year as the 1103 chip, the first generally available DRAM memory chip1. The article might have also explored the implications of these advancements for the future of computing, including the potential for increased storage capacity, faster access times, and the impact on computer design and functionality. It would have been an exciting time in the evolution of computer technology, with memory playing a crucial role in enabling more complex and powerful computing systems.
