Q-basic was a great language, although I didn't like staring at a dos like screen for hours on end. I never had to use it for school but it was the platform I learned from. Have you pursued Computer Science further and experienced assembly yet? Whenever I have to (very rare) use assembly for some reason it reminds me of Q-basic.
