Computer Design: Possible Standrardization Errata

Evening all,

While trying to automate, using Excel 97, correct the examples to reflect the the use of the Table vice text and understand the Computer design rules I noticed that the examples for the Standardization rule (pp 228-229) showed an increase in CPU Output. I went back and read over the rules, but could not find anything that explained the increase in CPU Output. Here is what I think is implied by the examples. When a computer is a standardized design the CPU Output increases by the difference of the min TL and the constructed TL. Example: A Linear computer core is available at TL7. At TL 8 the computer core is declared to be a standardized version using TL8 tech. The CPU Output changes from 2 to 2+(8-7)= 2+1 or 3 for 1 unit of linear computer core. At 10 TL8 standardized linear computer core units the CPU Output = (10*2)+(8-7)= 21. I have also posted this on the T20 Q and A discussion board. Along with my feelings of not being able to use both the standardization & miniaturization rules at the same time. If you could take a look please.
