Your claim was the 1980's.  Not the IBM PC.  Note that there
were a shitload of computers running in the 1980's, from the
TRS-80, the C64,the Amiga, PDP-11s, VAXs, Mainframes from
a dozen vendors - none of which had anything to
do with microsoft.  (And the Amiga _was_ programmed in C).

COBOL ran on the commodore 64 in 1985.  BASIC was far more popular
than any form of Pascal on the IBM PC in that era.
