Can someone point me to a PDF of the Compaq Portable BASIC manual? (I
believe it's IBM Advanced BASIC version 3.3, but I'd like to see the Compaq manual.)
just thinking out loud here, since that Compaq portable is from 1987 and GW-Basic is from 1983, it superseded BASICA which was originally intended for IBM PC's and GW-Basic was intended for non-IBM compatibles such as Compaq I'd go with GW-BASIC BTW, the Compaq Portable III says it has a 286 not a 386 Dan -- _ ____ / \__/ Scotty, We Need More Power !! \_/ _\__ Aye, Cap'n, but we've only got 80 columns !!
