fifteen (15) 2901's on it. Ouch! There goes the power budget!
Hah! DEC used sixteen (16) 2901s on their floating point boards
for later PDP-11 models and a few VAXen.
The designs of the floating point options for the 11/23 and 11/24
(FPF11, M8188), 11/34 (FP11-A, M8267), 11/44 (FP11-F, M7093), and
VAX 11/725 and 11/730 (FP730, M8389) are all fairly similar.
