"Things are seldom what they seem; skim milk masquerades as cream!"
Well, it turns out that my 11/45 is something of a mixed bag, and probably
isn't simply
an 11/45 at all. The aluminum plate on the console indicates KB11A S/N
01-05231 .
The sticker (mostly overlaid by another) on top of the backplane indicates
system S/N 1525.
But the overlay sticker is probably what counts. It indicates KB11D Rev.
D, Backplane
Rev R,. System S/N 293. If I am reading things right, I have an 11/55 in
an 11/45 case.
I had never bothered to check before. Sigh. Kind of a pity that it isn't
itself anymore.
The real pity is that UW Chem E. used to have a real 11/55 (white front
panel), that
I didn't pursue because I was out of room, several years ago.
Here are the board revisions, according to the sticker on top. (I verified
one of them).

I have noted a recent thread on 11/70 prints. I have an 11/45, but no
prints, and would love to get ahold of some. Anybody out there have some?
Note that the 11/45 had several changes at serial number 2000 (the UDR
board was revised, the PSU wiring changed, etc), and it's helpful to have
the right prints.
I have both versions (and an old-style 11/45 to look after), but I can't
easily copy them. Does anyone closer have them? I can trivially look
things up if it's the sort of info that can be transmitted by e-mail,
though.
BTW, _I'm_ looking for the 11/730 CPU prints (and the R80, for that
matter, I have a compact system...). Anyone in the UK got a spare set?
