Wow, does *that* term ever bring back some fond (and not-so-fond)
memories. 

These remind me a bit of the PCB cards worth of diode ROM arrays in
the Navy's  SPS-48 search radar computer back in the late 60's. As I
recall, there were dozen or so of them. I'm sure that amount of memory
would easily fit in a single EPROM chip today. :=)
