So they did this so we don't copy shareware apps to the RAM, then 
redistribute the pirated copies? Give me a break! TI is full of crap.

 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.
