Or is it a language that has extended structs to behave like objects?

As a Windows programmer that has done C++, Delphi (Object Pascal), VB and C#
on Windows, Objective C has such a simple elegance, and knowing that
ultimately it compiles as C code, makes it that much nicer to live with.
Me, I'll take the minor performance hit that the Objective C language pops
me with for the pure elegance. It's not like I'm using C# and the CLR and
Windows.Forms with it's 12.5M in memory baggage just to execute a Graphical
Hello World.
