It's an 11/93 all right. It has 2 meg on the board. The chips are surface mount and even if I could find some I could trust were good (all I saw with a quick search were "refurbished" which means taken out of something else!) I am not sure I would want to risk working on what I consider a rare find and my best PDP-11. Everything I have found so far says PMI works fine so I would prefer to find a 2meg or even a pair of 1 meg PMI boards. Not looking at commercial resellers because I have dealt with them in the past and know I can't afford them. bill
