> 60 kilohertz while consuming less than 6 milliwatts of power The IBM1401, the most popular computer in the world in the early 60s, ran at 11.5 microseconds per memory cycle = 87 kHz. True, it processed six bits at a time versus SERV's serial architecture but, still, both of these seem to be in the same ballpark, speedwise. The 1401 takes 13 kilowatts of juice. So not even in the same universe with respect to power consumed per computation.
