   According to a website I read, the quote was something along the lines of   
   "some TI-99 enthusiasts got permission to the IV.0 source code of the TI-99   
   version to port it to the Myarc Geneve 9640".   
      
   Not a direct quote, but closer than a paraphrase. This was on some UCSD   
   Pascal museum/history site.   
      
   I haven't been able to trace the details... it was available in IV.1 form on   
   the TI-99/8, and I remember hearing it was available for the Geneve...
