Please read Bill Gates's Letter to Hobbyists and don't do this. He's not going to be happy that people are ripping off his Altair BASIC and not giving him any money. What you're doing is just not fair to him.

That letter was written decades ago lol. I am a bit upset that you didn’t say that and made some of us look it up. Gates has many faults, but his current life consists of mostly positive stuff (such as fighting climate change, global hunger, diseases, lack of clean water) that I and others support. I will absolutely never support his past actions, but currently? I can name a whole bunch of billionaires that are doing worse. Like nearly all of them.
