Delphi was a great way to get into programming as a kid. You could just drop an image and a timer onto a form, set it to 50ms, edit the onElapse event to move the image according to key-presses, and you've got the start of a simple game! All in a way that is visual and makes intuitive sense to any non-programmer.
And the beauty of the language/IDE was that you could develop serious, complex applications with it, too.
Is there anything similar on the market today? I had a ton of fun with Delphi as a teenager!
