If I remember correct technical basic was for the HP
2000/1000 series.
No. 2000 ran TSB ("Time-Shared BASIC"). The 1000 ran
"RTE-B" or
"BASIC/1000". There were multiple different BASICs for the
2116/2100/21MX families, and which could also run on a 1000, but those
weren't Technical BASIC either. The 3000 ran "BASIC/3000" or
"BASIC/XL".
A friend who worked at HP once tried to count all of the different BASIC
dialects HP had used on various products, and found more than 20.
