I should have been more precise, but my point is that this is a non-parity
RAM basic 11/35 system useful for peripheral interfacing and
communications. As is, not good for something like RT11.
I wouldn't look at it this way. Non-parity memory is fine for any
application if you judge the risk of memory error to be low enough
16K RAM does not make for much of an RT11 system. The industrial/beefy
11/40's all have parity RAM. My PDP 11/05 has the same core stack as this
11/35.
I agree with Paul. I've seen dozens of RT-11 systems and non-parity MOS
memory has been more common in the ones I've seen. I see no reason to
think it would be a problem. True, 16K is small even for RT-11, but
I've seen plenty like that too.
