No, an 11/53 processor is an M7554, which is a quad board with J11, half a
meg of memory, 2 SLUs, bootstrap, etc. It's rather like an 11/73B but with
added memory (and no PMI capability, I think). It was designed as a low
end system, and IIRC it's slightly slower than an 11/73.
If you saw 11/53 BA23's with 11/23's in them, someone swapped the cards, or
swapped the labels.
