Interesting. I never heard of Mini-RSTS before. Looks like a marketing hack; it's
basically just a standard RSTS-11 system, a close to minimal configuration. All they had
to do is slap a name of it and print a new piece of paper, and presto, the appearance of a
new product.
On the other hand, "Micro-RSTS", which appeared much later, is a different item;
it involved some (fairly modest) changes in the software and its packaging and
installation procedures).
