  1. No. It used the same basic hardware but was designed from the ground up. Using the same main board allowed Nintendo to ship DK conversions for the unpopular Radar Scope (though RS was one of my non-Atari faves from the year) as well as re-purpose a lot of unsold units.
  2. That would've been ValForth, printed in repro-blue ink on yellow paper. Hard as hell to read. It was a good package if you didn't mind coding for an hour and then sitting there swapping 5 or 6 diskettes as you hoped it would compile. It was the best FORTH package there was for the 800. I don't quite follow. Are you referring to the indirect addressing which was used as a protection scheme (the hardest to bypass -- could take days to trace through), storing index and temp values on Page 0 (often trying to tie them into game-based counters like in Defender)?
  3. If it came out on 5200 it was "available" for the 400/800, even the unfinished, soundless Q*Bert.
