- drivers99 8y agoParent post said "BASIC and QB..." that's why I specified "BASIC for MS-DOS". I guess that was ambiguous. Technically I was using BASICA.COM (Advanced Basic on PC-DOS which relied on BASIC subroutines stored in ROM, which only IBM PCs, not compatibles, had) not GW-Basic which is what MS-DOS used, which had all the routines in the executable which loaded into RAM, and ended up running programs faster.
