Visual Basic- A personal experience Part 2

 That only computer immediately became the sweetheart of everybody, and everyone can't wait to have a hand on it! And it could run BASIC! 


There was no hard disk, you need a boot diskette to start it, then you insert a 5 and a half inch floppy disk that contain the BASIC program to start the  BASIC DOS-based IDE. I can't remember what version of BASIC was it, could be GWBASIC, a dialect of BASIC developed by Microsoft from BASICA, originally for Compaq.
