Clem is referring to the VAX-11/780 (and its follow-ons the 782 and
785), which used a LSI-11 processor (PDP-11/03) to load its microcode
on power-on. IIRC the LSI-11 front end also ran the system console
device (originally a LA-36 DECwriter terminal).
The third generation PDP-10 CPU (the KL10) similarly had a PDP-11/40
front end that did the bootstrap loading and also acted as a
peripheral device controller.
