   I want to
shoot the people responsible for Objective-C.  Any -specific- objections to the
language?  And kid, seriously, calm 
 the hell down...
 I find the language to be OK.  Not particularly great, but not as nasty 
as C++ either.  On the other hand, the Cocoa class libraries that 
everyone else seems to have gone gaga over seem to suck to me.  They 
seem overly complicated and difficult to use, compared to modern GUI 
class libraries (e.g., Qt, Swing, Android), though I'll credit that 
they're much easier to use than the old Mac toolbox.

I'd much rather be using Qt for the iPhone apps I'm developing, even 
though I'd have to use C++ to do it.  C'est la vie.
