Chris - you hate C++ because its powerful. And desktops hide complexity! Time to dig out that old machine code I think, and a few toggle switches for input - 8 enuf?
Who said I hate C++?
It wasn't you it was me, and I don't think I used the word hate but it will do. And I don't hate because it is powerfull, I hate it because it and the OO paradigm are (wrongly) seen as the only correct way to write code and because it does stupid things like information hiding.
