I don't get it.  QBasic came standard with MS-DOS 5-7.

But not with Mac...

BTW, I can find Linux compilers/interpreters for all languages
[C/C++, Fortran, Pascal, Perl, Python, Haskell, Prolog, etc],
but not BASIC.

http://www.freebasic.net/ has linux support. There are a few others.


Maybe Mac lacks BASIC too. Can this be an

I doubt the conspiracy theory. I think it's that there are so many "dialects" of BASIC that it's not the useful beginner's language that it used to be.
