I didn't know there was a 400/800 version of Turbo BASIC.
The reason it only runs on the XL/XE series is it
hides like 11K of itself under the OS. This isn't
possible with a 400/800. Sure you could just have it sit in main memory
but your programming space would be like 18K instead of the
usual 29K.

2 cents worth.
