  18. For what this is worth, I just received an updated version of
  19. QuickBasic from Microsoft as a result of having requested that I
  20. be put on an upgrade-requestors list over a year ago. The new
  21. version is supposedly System 7 compatible, though it doesn't
  22. let you do anything particularly "System 7 lustful".
