This thread is so deserving of a musical spinoff! Now lets see... I'm thinking something by Bob Dylan.

What about "The times, they are a-changin'" ?

EDIT: Or : "The times most commonly used programming languages, they are a-changin'"

I was going with that, but it's quite long and I have precious little time. I went with Blowin' in the Wind instead: http://www.mediafire.com/?0i6nwomnntl65dm

EDIT:

Almost forgot:

Quote
Verse 1
C / F      C / Am      C / F      G / G7
How many codes must a man note down, before you can call him a man?
C / F      C / Am      C / F      G / G7
How many C's must a programmer learn, before he can truly program?
C / F      C / Am      C / F      G / G
How many times must a group project fail, before we stick to the plan?

Verse 2
C / F      C / Am      C / F      G / G7
How many years must a Mac fan exist, before he converts to PC?
C / F      C / Am      C / F      G / G7
How many tears must that man then resist, before he goes crazy?
C / F      C / Am      C / F      G / G
How many times can we just turn our heads, and pretend that we're fair referees?

Verse 3
C / F      C / Am      C / F      G / G7
How many times must a man look it up, before the command's memorized?
C / F      C / Am      C / F      G / G7
How many fears must that one man have, before he can see through the lies?
C / F      C / Am      C / F      G / G
How many times must the Mac win out, before we accept that they're right?

Chorus
F / G      C / E7 / Am
The answer my friend, is don't ask Silverwind.
F / G      C
The answer is don't ask Silverwind.

This is the third topic I've turned into a musical parody, now I'd love to see someone go the extra mile and turn one into a movie! (especially if it starred Chow Yun Fat)

I'll jump in for this one, it sounds intriguing. ALSO, Here's what I have found when trying different languages: SC is cool because it's easier to make certain kinds of games, but is limited outside that area. TNT is trickier but more useful for different things, and theres a trade off, i.e. arrays work better, you can change the resolutionm, you can make tile maps quickly etc. Basically,
more complex/challenging = more powerful
