Glen, that doesn't change the fact the the Coco's gates are AND, OR, and NOT.
There isn't a BILL gate... No matter how much M$ BASIC is in the computer ROMS.
Although, I wouldn't be surprised if in C#.NET (or whatever) there wouldn't be
a:
if (foo GATE bar) etc.
Instead of:
if (foo || bar) etc.
(Yeah I switched from hardware to software...) ;)
