The FX-1 (supposedly Film Experiment 1) was an experimental computer created at Lincoln Laboratory to test magnetic film memory technology. It followed the TX-0 and TX-2 transistorized computer experiments - the latter had a small film memory. The 12-bit design of the FX-1 perhaps inspired the LINC.
