WHY?? Programming in C/C++ has *NOTHING* to do with Multimedia development?
Multimedia is a form - it is a way of thinking about delivering a message -
not a platform or language specific thing!!!

Too many so-called Multimedia products are video clips strung together with
some fancy buttons and graphics - CLEARLY THERE IS MUCH MORE TO BE EXPLORED!
Knowing programming is good, but it misses the point for Multimedia.  Authoring
tools should do the hard-core work - not C/C++
