Regarding the Calc Result cartridge, isn't that a Commodore printer ROM 
which is used as a key/dongle? It should be rather simple to cross-check 
binary contents of different files to see for sure. The other diagnostic 
cartridges seem to contain actual code.

I don't remember about Word Result, but since Golden Line also was a 
Handic/Datatronic product, I'd not be surprised if it also has a dongle, 
or maybe they used EPROM with some actual content once they ran out of 
surplus printer chips?

Best regards
