Oops, you're right. My own web page has the
correct info, but my
memory is terrible.
My memory is worse, I had to go dig through manuals to know. My
mental run
queue is only about 3 entries deep these days :)
Now that I think about it more, I'm fairly certain
that it won't,
because 2000E (and 2000F and 2000/Access) require the floating point
microcode that is not available for the 2114/2115/2116.
Aha, but there WAS floating
point available for the 2116. A separate
rackmount box. I have no clue if it had the same interface as the later FP
options.
How much memory can a 2114 be equipped with?
That's another potential
problem with trying to use a 2114 for either 2000A or 2000E, or as a
system processor for the dual-processor versions. The 2114 might also
be short on I/O slots, though it has enough to be an I/O processor
for 2000B and 2000C.
Very good points. I'm not going to dig up the answers
unless someone has a
2114 they are trying to get running ;)
