- gaius 17y agoI assume he means VB(.NET).
- electronslave 17y agoNow that this conversation is closed up, I'll date myself further. I do not mean Visual Basic (nor Victoria Bitter.)
- abdulhaq 17y agoBASIC was never a 'fad' - it was frequently all you had (other than machine code). Remember, no internet, no CDs, even no modems for the vast unwashed such as myself - just a tape deck, 16K ROM and a TV. The first language where I got to choose it was Lisp for the Sinclair QL, ~ 1985.
- PonyGumbo 17y agoYou must have an interesting definition of 'old'.
