But you need to think that 99,9% of actual devices have a processor and it
is done in C or C++. Think in washing machines, parkings, medical
machines, tv, video, players... practically all modern gadgets and
electrical appliances have at leas one processor into them, and those
processors cannot be programmed in .NET or other non C languages.

PS: Congrats, Joseph and Mike!

I wasnt questioning that at all. I am talking about number of
developers. What you said has been true forever and other languages
did take the lead over C++.
