I think there may be some resentment in the amiga camp towards C++ simply becuse it took so long for us to get a decent compiler. I rember the attitude was we dont need it and we dont want it. That seems to have stuck. BTW I learnt C++ very quickly and found it easy, i learnt OO through coding some BOOPSI stuff then when I got hold of C++ complier it was like whoa this does it all for me.
