Okay, looking over the web, I've seen several PDP11 machines marked
"DECdatasystem"... They don't seem to have anything in common...it's
like a
random marking DEC decided to put on machines. Anyone know what it means?

Not just PDP-11's. There are PDP-8's marked as DECdatasystem. I think
it was a marketing term.

Usually it's a machine with an OS that runs DIBOL programs. COS-310 for
the 8s, CTS-300 for the 11s if I remember correctly. As stated already,
mostly a marketing term for already existing system configurations.
