Starship computer questions...

Hello all, and Merry Christmas!

	While heaving a huge sigh of relief after finals, I have reopened another
of my many cans of worms in the Traveller area only to find myself baffled.

	Does anyone out there have any idea how GDW generated the Max Number of
control points for each computer model and the CP multiplier? I have not,
with my limited mathematical background and a hand calculator, been able to
piece any mathematical progression together... Not with Tech Level or Model
Number...

	Now, as I am endeavoring to piece together some set of rules for designing
and producing stats on computers of all kinds (Hand, Personal, Subdermal,
Megacomps, Mainframes, etc...) this, and the inability to figure out just
how many CPU units and Storage units (from the Robots Book) to allot such
creatures based on given knowledge, gives me a major headache.

	So, anyone with the time to send me some info on this stuff would gain my
most maniacal appretiation. I also promise to share these rules once done,
provided they are worth the media they are stored on. (This has yet to be
seen.)

	Thanks a bunch, and have a Happy New Year!
