I already can program in C, C++, Java, Perl, and awk... that's not the 
problem.. I want to know what everybody else is using and whether 
campus's are just M$ owned.

|www.borland.com, has free editions of Delphi (windoze Object Pascal),
|Kylix (Delphi for Linux, and soon C Builder for Linux), C Builder (C++),

|fits your style.
