³All the "little computers" used basic when I started.  The mainframes ran cobol

³that the Basic Interpreter was what you used.

They often used a proprietary basic, too.
 
As an aside, I never really tried it, but I wondered back then if one could
take a program written in TI-BASIC and port it over to run under BASIC on a PC.
Some of the ones I typed in used sprites and some other things I suspect
were unique to TI-BASIC and/or Extended BASIC that might not have a direct
function to translate to.
