The AIM-65 had BASIC as a rather common option
(don't remember if it was always present), and routinely came with a
full-sized ASCII keyboard
Oh, yep, ours has a proper keyboard too. Can't recall whether it has
BASIC fitted or not.

They also had ROMs for Forth, that I find more useful than
BASIC.
Well if Forth had floating point math is could see it competing with BASIC.
Other than GAMES I found very little other calculator style programs could
be written in BASIC. In hindsight word processing and acounting and games
that really made the mass market for computers.

PS. while on the topic of 6502's , does anybody know where I can get
a pdf online data sheet 68B50 ? Datasheets for the 8 bit stuff is getting
harder to find all the time for the original products.
