Well, if you don't want to pay $$$ to AT&T, you can get one for free
from the U of NM, in the Unix tradition:

    Subject: 4.1bsd basic
    Newsgroups: net.unix-wizards

    We have been running a very nice Basic from U of NM, Albuquerque, for a few
    months. It is all in C and looks well written. It is very much like IBM's
    VM Basic, except for no 'print using'. It was free for a tape.

    FLAME ON
    I have sent mail to people as they ask for Basic on this newsgroup
    but never received an acknowledgement or any sign that the mail got
    through. Thus, I am posting this for general readership. I got this
    from the net in the first place so apparently people are as tired of
    hearing requests as much as I and not bothering to respond. Now please,
    look through old news or something, but NO MORE BASIC REQUESTS, PLEASE.
    FLAME OFF
