I owe significant portion of my Win32 dev skills to VB6. It allowed for working with the Win32 SDK by importing API calls from user32, kernel32, gdi32, etc. When I was still in high school, I used to hack GUI projects and games in the evenings. The culmination of that was a full blown space shooter game using DirectX7 [0] (still runs on Linux) and a TCP/IP chat + canvas draw application that I had installed in the computer room at my school.
