And I'm wondering if C is used much in writing Cocoa applications? It doesn't seem to be, from what I've read on here, or have I got the wrong impression there?

Most of the time, if you have a choice, it's easier to stick with Objective-C. I use plain C for:

* Calling Carbon.
* Calling BSD.
* Calling Cocoa's C APIs.
* Accessing third-party libraries with C interfaces.
* Writing small parts of my code that need to be very efficient.
