Looks like people meet now here:
PUMP Forum (http://pump.richheimer.de/)

Du kennst hoffentlich "PUMP" (betrieben von Albert Richheimer, ein (fast) Landsmann (er ist Schweizer lebt aber im Süden von BW), da haben sich alle PB-Refuges versammelt.

Did anyone from the People in USA try to get the Sourcecode?

PS: Tried to register in the PUMP Forum yet it seems to be slow.

It had to happen sooner or later. The new owners aren't interested on it.

Carlo Pagani posted a temporary solution in PUMP:

This will only work for a while ... from what i have seen, on 14.10.2025 Powerbasic.com will be down finally.

Question is, if not somebody from USA can get hands on the sourcecode.
If they really do not need it.
