How come one time when someone entered something weird into the setup, the 
screen changed and we were in basic, with a message that went something like
"subscript out of range in line XXX"?  

Moreover, there have been several communication packages for the IBM-PC
that are written in BASIC.  Interpretive.  For insance:  The IBM Asynchronous
Communications Package which they released when the PC first arrived on the
scene, way back when.

Besides, the GiGi keyboard is really poorly made. (Then again, so is the
"real DEC" vt100 keyboard :-).
