I've looked at C++ and went back to Pascal.

Maybe because some people still prefer to use Pascal. I've got one friend that 
won't use anything but Quick Basic. My feeling is that if the language you are 
using does what you want it to, and you are happy with it, then why change.

 TWM> Actually, real programmers use Delphi. ;-)

Guess I will never be a real programmer then. :-)
