At the risk of being burned at the stake for even mentioning basic, but...

On the cover of the April 8, 1991 issue of INFO WORLD, is an article
stating that MS expects to release "Basic for Windows" (code name Thunder)
this May.

I also read somewhere (here?), in a veiled article, that a program being
demoed for a limited audience crashed and burned 3 times.

Are there any beta testers out there that can comment, without violating
non-disclosure agreements, etc., about "Basic for Windows"?
