I went to the club at the Mall of America. The most notible thing I personaly noticed, is the feeling that nintendo I trying to change thier image to appeal to adult video gamers. (1) When I walked in, a staff member handed me a stack of magazines. Most video game, but on the top was a magazine called "Stuff for Men" featuring pages and pages of Bikini Women. (2) They had Eternal Darkness on demo. Basiclly a Resident Evil style game. (3) They must be advertising diffrently since Most everyone there was 18+ years old!
If I am right about ninendo trying to appeal to adult video gamers, they more than just bikini women magazines and Horror video games. They need bikini women in Horror video games.
I think c# would be a very good introductory language for a computer science course, ignoring the Microsoft stigmata and the fact that since it is a new language there are few books/compilers/debugers/teachers out there.
1) It has support for many Object oriented Mechanisims.
2) It looks like c/c++/java/javascript so you could move onto them after you completed the c# class.

4) It is the Microsoft.net language for server side stuff. So you could go get a job after your first semester at college.
