You are right on both counts. BASIC was (and I guess still is) despised 
by the "real programmers"
as not being a *real* programming language.
The fact is (that is to say, "my opinion is") that those who talked that 
way rightly perceived it as a
threat to their elite status and so its development was squelched. The 
VB's are different animals.

Well enough of that. :)
