My high school still uses QuickBASIC (last I checked, anyway) for their intro to programming course. They somehow gutted the command prompt so that any command entered wouldn't actually execute, and blocked batch files, but there's a fun QB program you can write . . .
Code: [Select]
DO
    INPUT FOO$
    SHELL FOO$
LOOP
(They also didn't block Windows Script Host scripts.)
