|  Easiest contest ever to win something from AMD (Akin to guessing Jelly Beans)
<a href="http://www.winwithamd.com/index.php?Blink=L1209597784695446747" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.winwithamd.com/banner.gif" alt="AMD - Guess Now and You Could WIN!." width="215" height="95" border="0" /></a>
Theres the link
I figure what's to lose, it's free to enter and entering is just guessing numbers...
Anyways, your all welcome! |

Im giving up my answer for everyone. I think, dont attack me if i messed up, but i beleive the answer to be between 8000 and 8500. So if you want, take that into consideration.
Because:
Volume of Individual Balls (X) :
4/3 * Pi * 10^3
Volume of Bundle (Y):
4/3 * Pi * 202^3
So now we know the volumes, we divide:
Y / X = 8300

I think the your measurements are flawed
I did it in inches and got a number about 1/5 of yours.
And I did it the exact same way lol plus I did it a good day before you  | |

The balls overlap and there are air gaps...

balls cant overlap...
And yes there are air gabs.
I'm going to ask my physics teacher how to solve for that tomorrow...

Yeah, air gaps are one thing to watch out for.
