a new technology: C

You might think there was a problem displaying the character # or even ++ on your browser.
But no, I stated just plain old C.
Over the past few weeks I have been in a few book stores, naturally visiting the computer section.
Looking at the new development books in the section I was surprised, nah shocked, to see a number of C books.

Is this a retro style thing?

Have we given up on this wachy OO stuff?

Did the (different) book companies find some big warehouse of old books and are trying to unload them?

I don't understand...
