Wow, just had a nostalgic moment. I remember QBasic. I remember my elementary school having a book about Basic and being able to do some of the example games and apps. And a few not working. BASIC/QBASIC differences?

But mostly I remember complaining to my dad. QBasic "compiled" to some intermediate that required QBasic to run... I remember never being happy with that.

I thought I had eventually found out... but QB64 only supports XP, and I know that I was doing QBasic on something much older than that... Maybe older versions of QB64 supported earlier versions of Windows.

anyway, a nice little 5 minute trip down memory lane.
