Note that for example FreeBASIC has at least as many unique features (and incompatibilities) as PowerBASIC has. <br>

:Mostly because there are currently three different versions ([[PB/DOS]], [[PB/CC]], and [[PB/Win]]; a fourth version (PB/Linux) has supposedly been in development for about a decade) that are incompatible to some degree with each other. (It's possible to write code that works unchanged in both PB/Win and PB/CC, but you frequently (often? usually?) need seperate code for PB/DOS.) If it had been possible to use the same source code in all three flavors, I would've just made it a page, but the differences are big enough that I feel that the category is justified. (I had other reasons, but they're minor compared to this.) -- [[User:Eriksiers|Eriksiers]] 16:08, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
