I prefer C++, but I code in C more often than not. I just dislike C because it's so low level... but implementing a C compiler is easier than implementing a C++ compiler, so I suppose that's why (or partly why) my company prefers to use C? We build multiplatform libraries, etc..

I also do some Java, but it's only natural for me to do it, as the syntax for Java and C++ are very much alike. If you can do one, you can pretty much do the other if you take the time to learn the differences between the two languages. I think Java is pretty slow compared to C++, though, and I don't like that you can't use pointers.
