BASIC's Comparison Matrix: ideas for content?

Oh noes you added Purebasic. I actually bought that, while it was about v4.30, and it was very buggy. Could never use it except to do pretty Windows GUI's. For games, graphics and sound QB64 was always my friend. I just downloaded Purebasic v6.00 because I could but I just don't have an use for that trash any longer. Comes "ready to use" on Windows but cannot even use it on Linux because it requires too many third-party and not enough "libre" dependencies, for its high price tag it's not worth it, on Slackware, Ubuntu or anything else. At v4.6 and Windows10 (should have been for Vista and later) it sucked I couldn't use the IDE debugger at all; when a program was compiled with debug information and run, the system invoked the standalone debugger as well. I had enough using it at v5.21 LTS (in 2014) on an old Toshiba laptop with 32-bit WindowsXP and the stupid IDE text editor, not even slicker than QB64 kept suddenly crashing so I lost my work.
