Core was in effect ROM. Power the system down switch off and anytime later turn it back
on and whatever was
in core was still there. I can remember our Field Service guys restarting the final
factory diagnositc on new systems.
That?s not ROM, that?s non-volatile RAM. It used to be that ?non-volatile? was assumed
and not stated, until semiconductor memory came along that made the adjective necessary.
