There is a saying when comparing programming languages:  If you can't 
think of one place where the language you don't like is better than the 
one you do, you're don't it well enough to comment on it.

Example:  Ada has linked-list support (Access types), while Qbasic does 
not.  (To be fair, Qbasic is easily used on older computers.  All you 
have to do is copy qbasic.exe and qbasic.hlp to the floppy disk and you 
can program in it.)
