When BASIC was at the top, do you agree?

For me, 1981 to 1985 was the Golden Age of personal computing, with first the  ZX81, theZX Specrum, and then the Amstrad CPC range. I cut my teeth on the ZX81, writing my first "programmes" in basic, with a small introduction to machine-code. But after graduating through the Spectrum to the Amstrad, with its faster storage and retrieval, colour, and half-way decent graphics I was able to finally write some useful software.
Compared to todays PCs of course, these were still "toys", but they encouraged and enabled many of todays programmers to go on to bigger and better productions.

I appreciate to PC and Qbasic in 1994-1995 when I got my first pc (a grayscale screen notebook) to write my work to graduate... so I found a unknown passion pc and programming... in that year Microsoft was launching win95 and under its DOS. Using interrupts was like a magic to do all that originally Qbasic didn't...
