[Coco] Happy Birthday BASIC!

[Salvador Garcia]

Something that I did not locate in that Wiki entry is that the original BASIC was a compiled language.

Seeing how many shunned BASIC because it was interpreted, I believe that this is an important item.

And if anyone feels nostalgic, you can still program like it is 1964 here:
