      From: ohland@charter.net              Dave, how are CBASIC and CBIOS related? I _ASS U MEd_ that CBASIC is not       part of the Compatibility BIOS [CBIOS], and deleting the 32KB is like       removing tonsils [but without ice cream].              This is all related to replacing a floppy during boot at a very       primitive level... Can you hear the drums?              IBMMuseum wrote:       >> Since CBASIC is such a kludge, what can we do with the 32KB?       >       > I like CBASIC, but it can be replaced by QBasic from disk - however, you're       going down a rabbit-hole to re-write (C)BIOS. Unless you plan to run OS/2,       just use the ABIOS areas.       >              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
