Turbo 5000 is a utility cartridge. With it you can: - put files from tape to disk
- make screen dumps (to paper) of any screen
- setting up higher baud rates for tape save and load
- disk monitor
- etc.
Back then it was quite a revolutionary cartridge. It has nothing to do with Turbo Pascal. The main program is written in Basic. |

Yes it was, I remember seeing a Dutch televisionshow where the maker of the Turbo 5000 won a huge pile of software.
I used it a lot in those days, I still have it but never use it anymore. |

I remeber the 'old' command to undo the effect of the 'new' command. It worked after eboots, that was great!
