MacBASIC

[Dog Cow]

This is the one that Microsoft made a deal with Apple and got them to cancel it, but legend tells of beta copies which were leaked around the mid-80's. Apparently this guy has it.

Anyone know a source for it?

Apparently this guy has it.

"This guy", is Kallikak.

Ahh, I didn't know he was a member here; I've never seen his posts.

Thanks for the offer, but I've already got that on disk.

Thank you for the link, but MacBASIC seems rather elusive! MacBASIC was in fact, NOT made by Microsoft.

NOT made by Microsoft.

Wasn't it based on Apple ]['s BASIC, which WAS made by Microsoft? I'm probably wrong, but oh well.
