I bought the DarkBasic(not Pro) with DarkMatter bundle some years ago, lucky I haven't waste time on it.

If you buy all the affiliate 3rd party tools I believe the cost is higher than the A7 Com version, so don't waste money further.

If you just want a programming language, why not try lite-C? It is free for learning and much powerful then DarkBasic. Conitec is very serious in lite-C so you can fully bet on it.
