I rather like it. The problem is this: make a language that is a strict extension of C and has Smalltalk-style OO.

It's not a bad problem to solve and Objective-C does a nice job. The syntax is odd, but it's to clearly separate the Objective-C parts from the C parts.

C++ on the other hand mushes the syntax together. It might look more C-esque, but it's less dynamic and more difficult to maintain as your project grows, IMO.

Plus XCode is awesome.
