Well, for one reason that you got tons of stupid MCSE people who don't know 
nothing from their lives and are simply too lazy to learn something 
real(tm)...

Remember 10 years ago what language they tought at school for newbies? logo - 
fd 10, rt 90 fd 50 - remember this shit?

Same shit with basic - people who want to skip hard learning learn Visual 
Basic (and Basic in general), PRINT, DIM - rings a bell? :)

So lots of people who comes from MS world want to do their Basic stuff on 
Linux - 

you can find GNOME Basic (screenshot: 
http://www.gnome.org/projects/gb/gnome-basic.jpeg - www.gnome.org/gb for the 
web site - it seems abandoned)

and there is KBasic which is still in development: 
http://www.kbasic.org/1/home.php3 - version 0.8 is out - look at the 
instructions before jumping to compile it. You'll need QT-1.45 for that.
