Seriously, is anyone still doing any real development in C besides kernel programming and embedded world?? Maybe I was living under a rock, but I always had an impression that the industry moved to C++ in the late 90s and stayed with it ever since. The last bastion of C was open source Linux/*BSD programming but I remember the time when C was a truly universal programming language used for _everything_ including games (e.g. Doom). Maybe I just miss the 90s. --Andy
