There is a big difference between someone's spare-time project and a full
commercial product developed for a specific platform. For some applications,
the difference isn't important, but for the majority I think it is.
And, for what it's worth, we have a free version of our BASIC, too. It
can't create stand-alone programs (but neither can Applesoft or, I suspect,
CallBox) and it's limited to 64K. Give it a try.
