Alaoglu and Erdos mention the first term in footnote 14.
Because the "shapes" of superabundant and highly composite numbers are different, there is a last superabundant number that is also highly composite. In factored form, that 154-digit number is N = A004394(1023) = A002182(2567) = 2^10 3^6 5^4 7^3 11^3 13^2 17^2 19^2 23^2 29 31 37...347. In other words, this sequence contains all superabundant numbers greater than N. - T. D. Noe, Oct 26 2009
