Univac I memory tank

It is not likely to be made to work, easily. From what I was told, the mercury ones needed to be rebuilt after some time. Most likely because the mercury dissolved one of the metals used in side. I can't imagine what that might be and why they continued to have such a problem but that is what I hear someplace.

Provided they can make it work, of course! :-) I wonder how many working delay line main memories are left in the world?
