Re: No more BASIC for MAC?



Kyle: I understand that VB5, which is due out soon, or so Bill tells us,
will be available for the MAC as well as the PC. It is a little more
work for quick and dirty hacking but not much and it has far more
potential for application development. Incidentally, you should verify
that the MAC will be supported by calling Microsoft since my info is from
a computer magazine.

I've just been told from a vendor that no version of BASIC exists for the
PowerMac. So what are people using when they want to do some quick and
dirty programing on a Mac these days? (Please don't tell me I have to learn
C!! Please! Surely there is something easier.)
