Got my first Silicon Chip mag

The only Basic worth bothering with is Visual Studio 6 Basic. The C# is far better than VB.net, which is really just C# with Basic Wrapper. Earlier Basic than VB5 are poor. Any CP/M, Apple. Pet, DOS, and even BBC Basic are really poor, clue in name. Cut down interpreted versions of Fortran.

Better to use some decent compiler for the Pi.
