Thanks!

What does PowerBASIC have that warrants spending money on?
   Power?

That's very perceptive!  Yes, POWER. <g>   And Macros, TCP/UDP, Inline
assembler, Bit fields, Extended precision floats, Unsigned integers,
Array Sort/Scan/Insert/Delete/Assign, built-in Profile and Trace,
Thread support with TLS, Regular expressions with search/replace, and
so much more.  Oh, yes, and the smallest/fastest executables in the
industry.  With no run-time DLL's needed.  None.

Deliver a substantial GUI application on a single floppy disk with
room to spare.

You can find all the details atwww.powerbasic.com

As to the original question  --  PowerBASIC is available direct from
the publisher, as well as from Component Source, Provantage,
Programmer's Paradise, Kirschbaum, QBS Software, Grey Matter, Insight,
and others.

Very nice, but I didn't see any mention of
unlimited precision integers.
