Right; I'd gotten this far. What I was questioning is (a) whether my
reading of the rules as "the computer requires no volume" was correct,
and (b) whether the no-volume rule was in fact also correct for CT, MT,
T4, and T5 - I wasn't considering TNE, as it was a different,
incompatible system; nor was I considering GURPS Traveller, for the same
reason.

Thank you for the pointer to the errata; while there was no
clarification relative to this point, it's a useful document to have.
