Interesting about Turkey, I have allways wished I could afford to go there and see the country, also Tibet, would be neat, who knows maybe some day,
Have you tried Teds (Clippy)s qbasic tutorial,? it is pretty neat, there is a link to it in his signature,.. Also, if you like DOS, you may like FreeDos, FREE DOS Qbasic runs fine with it, and unlike DOS 6.22, Free Dos, is still being developed, improved, plus it is for free,
Ok well guess that is all from me at this time,

By the way, if anyone is interested, I am an American living in Turkey. It was so funny when I visited a local University library, where stuck between books on Python and C++ were old yellowing copies of books about GWBasic in Turkish

After using Windows XP/Vista/7 for years, I decided that I would like to learn more about programming and operating systems, so like a nutjob I installed xubuntu and VirtualBOX running MS-DOS 6.22. Wow, talk about WAY too much to learn at once! At first I was planning on learning True BASIC, but when I tried out QBASIC, I found it interesting, and it appears that the QBASIC community is much larger, which is a help for me (hopefully).
So for now, I'll content myself with working on QBASIC and MS-DOS, and worry about Linux and VirtualBOX later. Who knows, maybe in 5 years I can get my mouse, sound card, and DVD ROM to work
