      Anyway, you couldn't really do any serious applications with gwbasic. It was followed by qbasic a little later.

      I was in time to get to do both. Still have the original GWBASIC manuals!

      I just did a little with both. But this was around the same time that Borland released Turbo Pascal and at least in my view it became the serious language to make PC applications with in that era. It was almost instant compilation and it had a very good IDE.

      IS BASIC programming still in vogue?

      All of our current desktop applications are VB.Net, but as we begin to update, all future code will be C#.

      Granted, we have a lot of legacy code and simple updates will not always rate a rewrite to C# due to labor costs.
