A89: 8k limit or lack there of




In light (this is not the right spelling is it?) of the earlier
confusion over the 8k limit on assembly programs, I emailed ti with a
few questions.  The following is the response: (take it for what you
like)

<<

Q1: Does AMS 2.03 for the TI-89 limit 68k assembler programs to 8k? 
A1: Yes 

Q2:  Or is the limit just for freeware applications?  
A2:  There is no 8K limit on freeware applications for this platform. 

Q3:  If it is for assembler programs, then why would TI do this? 
A3:  This prevents the dishonest user from taking a for sale/"paid for"
app and loading into RAM and operate / copy it. Essentially, inhibit
software piracy.
