Not unless your Basic program was too large. In fact you can safely put
PAGE down as far as &900, and have 1k in which to store your program and
all it's variables, if you are willing to forego:
  Page &9 - Envelopes 5-16/Serial Output,Speech/Cassette output
  Page &A - Serial Input/Cassette input
  Page &B - Function key definitions (Use OSBYTEs 225-228 to disable the
            FN keys or use them for ordinary character codes)
  Page &C - Character definitions for CHR$224 - CHR$255

Page &D is used by the Disc and Econet systems (and anything else which
needs NMIs) not to mention the extended vectors and Rom workspace bytes,
so this cannot be used.

Pages &9 and &A can be used even if you are using the cassette system
for whole file operations... they are only used when you are using BPUT,
BGET, and OSGBPB on cassette files.

    Cheers, Julian.
