>>What language that you have used do you like most? And are there any you have particularly disliked?

>>Just to get the ball rolling, my most liked list consists of C#, Delphi, and assembler. Assembler was the first one I learned (other than a little Fortran in a college class) and there was something about its austerity I really liked. Not machine language but the next closest thing. Once you grok the principles of assembler, nothing is going to really surprise you. Delphi was an elegant language I really enjoyed working with during its moment in the sun, a combination of VB's ease of use and C's low level capabilities. C# is the language I love these days. If all goes well I will be using it the rest of my career.

Wow! Definitely non-mainstream choices. Not criticizing, those are just different preferences.
