Someone might be worrying about it, like whoever now owns the Tandy 
intellectual property.  The probability that someone will worry about it 
is indeed low, but it is not zero.  Bummer to be the person that ends up 
the unlucky one bundling the ROMs :-/

Also, Salvador, no offense, but no documentation means it is still 
illegal, so worry yes (I hate that too, but it is what it is). And, even 
if MS gave permission, that doesn't actually help, as I recall.  Maybe 
the initial versions of TANDY BASIC are wholly owned and licensed by MS, 
but at least the DECB 2.1 has pieces owned directly by TANDY (the 
patches), so any agreement with MS would not cover those.
