Yet another reason for *nix
I know ... blah, blah, blah - here's another Linux Lover that's going to spew verbal crap all over the place ... but think about it, C, it's all you need ... the newer languages just get farther away from assembler, and process slower anyways - heck (don't know if hell is allowed), most of these new languages were BUILT with C.

Microsoft yet again, pulls the masses away from what has been standard for ages, then yanks that away from them, leaving them stranded and helpless.

Now if they were using Linux, and programming with C, they wouldn't HAVE this problem.

My rant is over.
