and to find any errata on the Mongoose Traveller forum.
To clarify a TNE design rules are effectively the same as for MT. There are some changes, but a TNE
computer still takes up space just like one in MT.
GURPS Traveller's computers take up cubic feet of space instead of cubic meters.
I cannot provide any information on T5 since I don't have the rules yet.

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.
