Is it possible to load and run FemtoBasic
on a PropRPM board?

    Sure.

    The TV I/O pins are the same as the Demo Board. The only thing missing is the PS/2 keyboard interface which you could add with a couple of resistors and a connector (copy the Demo Board wiring). If you don't want to add a PS/2 keyboard, you could try DongleBasic. This is a stripped down version of FemtoBasic designed for any Propeller board with a 5MHz crystal. The only required I/O is the programming port on pins 30/31. It'll use an SD card if present (see the documentation for the wiring). It uses the PC connection for the console. You could use PST (Propeller Serial Terminal) for the PC end or any terminal emulator under MacOS or Linux.
