There is one major criteria that is  swaying me  twards selecting C++
as the choice for our experimentation with OOPs and that is price.  

The second major  influence in  my decision  is that  C++ is multiple
sourced now  and looks  more like  an emerging  defacto standard than
Objective-C.    PPI's  marketing  of  Objective-C  seems  quite short
sighted.....  They could have seeded the world with it a year ago and
made it a standard.  Now if ATT just bundled C++ with Unix....
