Well, I hope everybody out there has had better luck that I have in running
Turbo BASIC.  I STILL don't have working versions of the compiler and runtime
system, though Howard Chu is making one more attempt to send me good files.

(Owen Alexander, I may have been hasty in saying I did not need you to send me
your copies...)

Also, I wonder if it is just my copy of the Interpreter or is there a serious
bug in the official copy:  Mine seems to work, but when I ran a program that
did some simple math like computing 2^(-1/12), it bombed with an error message
"Error 11 - Overflow".  Also, simple things like EXP(.5) threw it for a loop.
Has anybody else found problems like these or do I need a new copy of the
Interpreter file also?
