Is anyone using the 'Version$' statement to maintain compatibility with LB?

Code:

if instr$(Version$,"LBB") > 0 then
    .
else

I have done, yes, most often when opening a serial port because the syntax for the port options - other than the basic settings - is different for LB and LBB:

Code:

    if instr(Version$, "LBB") then
        open "COM1:9600,n,8,1" for random as #serial
    else
        open "COM1:9600,n,8,1,ds0,cs0,rs" for random as #serial
    end if
