For a laugh: Brief histories of BASIC and C

One of my favorites is how the progression of BASIC is closely followed by the quality of Star Trek games. ROFL

While reading the history of C, I especially laughed when he talked about software analysts on drugs spouting off about things that never quite materialized, like code portability.

Pure geek humor goodness for you.
