[net.micro.amiga] ABasic rights?

cjp@vax135.UUCP (Charles Poirier) (04/14/86)

The Amiga I bought came with AmigaBasic by Microsoft, rather than
ABasic.  Now, I would *assume* that when people were upgraded to
release 1.1, they acquired AmigaBasic for free.  But I started with
rel 1.1.  So am I legitimately allowed to copy someone's ABasic, or
would that constitute piracy?  Notice that there are loads and loads of
Basic programs on Fish Disks that I know are not AmigaBasic --
are they ABasic?  For instance Monopoly, Polydraw/fractals are ABasic,
also much of Fish Disk 13.  But as I lack ABasic, I can't run them.

I would like the answer to come from Commodore/Amiga please.

	Thank you.
