I think Qbasic7.1 was made before windows 95.

Precisely on 1994

Infact it was Microsoft's last DOS main stream product!

Ahhh....Thanks, now to do some investigating into qb7. By the way, how come QB version numbers go from like, 1.0, to 4.5 to 7.1? I have never seen any other versions, but why do they have the big jumps?

I once had QB 1.0 al the way thru to 7.1 (including 2.0, 3.0, etc) but I don't think they released 5.0 or 6.0...

Indeed. :)

I hadn't looked before, as this thread is quite old - but as it was brought to my attention I did what was required to keep it in line with the AUP.

ah well i wonder how many old threads still are in conflict with the AUP. Thats kinda funny. I always thought it odd though when I was learning QB I downloaded it off a computer at school. I was informed it was "illegal". WHAT? Do you think microsoft cares? Where could I "legally" purchase it anyway? CompUSA?

There are over 2 million posts on the forums.. I'm certainly not going to spend my time reading them all ;)

Like it or not, taking a copy of copyrighted software (or other items) is illegal. If you want to use it, try buying it via online auction sites or similar.
