I don't think it is necessarily the same, because cpu slots aren't unibus 
slots. The extended unibus slots that are for memory in the 11/44 ARE unibus 
slots.

But more to the point, the manual for the MS11-P shows that the M8743 cards 
tie together BG4-7 and NPG ON THE CARD. If they do that, then why wouldn't 
one need a grant card if no module is present?
