Chris - I think the $99 price is for the PowerBasic version which fully 
supports W32 DLL's.

I seem to recall the DOS only version was $19 or less - Though when I bought 
the full development package it was $49 for 2 CDs full of great tools. But that 
was maybe just before Win XP was released.

I still have several solid DOS programs that no one since has put out a better 
product - so I still keep a good dependable DOS based system on hand. I love my 
BobCAD v12 for DOS. ( I will admit since BobCad went to windows it has been 
less than marginal)

I can see that trying to port from PowerBasic to a different language would be 
very difficult, and likely counter productive.
