Welcome to the 1960's and 70's in computing lol.

can you imagine building a cpu using only vacuum tubes, capacitors, and resistors?

apparently there are and/or circuits and other such oddities using that technology.

also known as Vacuum logic.

vacuum logic circuits using crystal diodes, capacitors, resistors, and vacuum tubes

dedicated mainframe tubes

to understand the present you must understand the past, only then can you move toward the future

and back on topic.

yeah that seems really really complicated.
like some kind of logic puzzle... literally a "logic" puzzle.

I'd have to wait until my weekend before I begin to tackle it.
