well, if my memory serves me right....

Bill Gates started Microsoft in 1975, he and another guy wrote a BASIC interpreter. Later IBM hired Microsoft to build DOS (then called IBM DOS, and later MS DOS). So windows was written in BASIC and DOS.

if you wanna learn the language, stay away from IDEs at first.
