I'm partial to BWBasic...  it had a very interesting feature... very 
large number support, so you could do things like implement RSA if you 
were so inclined...  :-)    I'm not sure of the current state it's in 
now, haven't played with it for a long while.  The last time I touched 
it, someone had turned it into a shell program...
