V4.3 and V6.1 are identical except for a trailer disk that contains the
appropriate initial displays. The other difference is that the V4.3 SysDef
does not include NT stations while the V6.1 SysDef does.
There have been memos issued by the head of CSC (John Eva) to that effect.

Subject: RE: ACM Module
The document is exactly what we were looking for Alex. Thanks a
lot. One
question. The document references the use of the ACM with 6.0 and
6.1
explicitly. Does it work the same with 4.3?
