Thanks for the advice.  I am running FreeBSD.  I love it.  I've been in the profession since 1976, and I used UNIX at Gould Computer Systems Division for a solid 5 years between 1985-1990.  I've 
been using FreeBSD since 1.1.5 (I think that's what came with a book I bought).  I love programming, but I hate the level of detail I need to address in most of the latest environments.  Visual C++ 
should be MUCH more functional.

I've been programming in C since '83 and C++ since '94, but I'm always on the lookout for higher level languages that will lessen my load.  I want to write small apps for personal use on my own 
machines and I never seem to have enough time to learn new languages.  I started to pick up Java some time ago, but they keep tripling the language...

I do plan on learning Python and using it to access GTK and QT...

Again, thanks and I hope other people benefit from your response...
