I tried to learn C++ in my spare time. I am now
writing programs in Obj-C and it only took Aaron's
book to get me there. (And Apple's free developer
tools) C++ looks like a fine language and I'll be
happy to learn it when I am full time employed as a
programmer, until then I'll be making shareware with
Obj-C.
