I have to say, if you want to get into programming seriously DO NOT start with

your going to have a much harder time learning C, which is what most programs 
are written in. Also things like Java and PHP use a syntax that's very C likeM

So I very strongly advise, speaking as somebody who learn't BASIC and regretted 
it frankly, don't learn BASIC unless that's all you intend to ever use. C will, 
PHP or Java will be a lot better places to start. C will be the most difficult 
but also the most useful.

C# may be a good alternative. It's similar in many ways to C++, Java, Object Pascal (Delphi), rather strict, and quite portable.
