For example, the IBM 7010 was an IBM 1410 done up in

architectural relationship with the 7090/7094, nor did the
7070 or 7080, near as I can tell.
Yes, the 14xx were character-based decimal
machines. The
7070 was a word-based decimal machine aimed at the business
market. The 709x were word-based binary machines.
