Ran it on my Apple ][. It was interesting because another great platform on the Apple was UCSD Pascal but Turbo was so much slicker and easier to use.

- linsomniac 3y agoMy High School had a computer lab of ~8 Apple ][s with dual floppy drives and the CPM board to run UCSD. It worked, but we were definitely limited in the number of computers we could use due to these limitations. I also had access to an HP 9835 also running USCD, so it was very familiar to me. But part way through my class we switched from UCSD to Turbo Pascal, which only needed one floppy and just absolutely blazed. It was like a space age rocket ship.
- fortran77 3y agoI don't think there was a version of Turbo Pascal for the Apple ][ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbo_Pascal https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbo_Pascal ..though you may have been able to run it with the Z-80 Softcard
- zwieback 3y agoYes, correct, it was only with the CP/M card, not 6502.
