I remember buying CBasic-3 (at least, I *think* that was the name) way back 
in the late 1980's, found in an ad in Rainbow Magazine. If I recall 
correctly, there were two or three BASIC-to-ML compilers available. One 
might have been ML-BASIC for $50. I remember the one I bought was $150 -- I 
think that was CBasic-3.

I no longer have it. It was lost or sold or destroyed or something, after I 
moved to college. I have a dozen or two .BIN-format games to show for it, 
but no compiler now.

Web searches aren't coming up with much of anything. Does anybody here have 
information about this compiler? I'd be interested in finding it again. By 
chance, has the original publisher released it as freeware now? If so, where 
can I find it? If not, does anybody with a copy want to sell theirs? If so, 
how much do you want? :)

Every now and then the orginal author will sell a copy on ebay under the
