     1This ticket contains three separate, but closely related, tasks. One is a defect and two are enhancements:
     21. (Defect): Read CPU Model number, CPU Serial Number, and Ship Date fields at offsets interpreted as octal, rather than decimal, numbers.
    332. (Enhancement): Read and report new information added to the PROM (e.g., Release type, release version number, target architecture, and target operating system, etc.)
    443. (Enhancement): If this version of the simulator is not a general release (i.e., the Release type character is not an "R"), issue a warning. Compare this version of the simulator to the latest released version known at the time of this Multics release. If this version of the simulator is earlier, issue a warning. In particular, if this earlier version of the simulator is known to have a defect that could adversely affect the operation of Multics, include that in the warning
