	I'm sure I'm going to get blasted on this but I think it is best to learn
Delphi (you'll actually be learning Pascal) because then you can generate
easy to use programs quickly for either EFI or any stuff in general. C is
more of the excepted norm but Delphi compilations are fast and much more
versatile, and much easier to use, and very cheap right now. Oh, if you
learn C you can count on having to learn C++ which is the object oriented
version of C. With Delphi you get it all in one step.
