Wer hätte gedacht.

dass Magnetkernspeicher einen Vorgänger hatten

Early computer memory tubes

The first random access computer memory used a type of cathode ray tube 
called the Williams tube that used secondary emission to store bits on the 
tube face. Another random access computer memory tube based on secondary 
emission was the Selectron tube. Both were made obsolete by the invention of
magnetic core memory.

aber was heisst nun "store bits on the tube face"?

na, die Bits werden im Röhrengesicht gespeichert. Also einfach mal in 
die Röhre schauen!
