Some thoughts from the peanut gallery:

I'm not a software developer (although I did get that education once
upon a time), unless you count the typical scripting a sysadmin does
day to day to get the job done.

Java, Ruby, Python, et al, seem to me to be rather heavy in terms of
system requirements good performance.  Is this true?  My knee-jerk
reaction is that the smaller devices (handhelds, old 486 computers,
etc) would be strained by the resource requirements for such a system.

The (limited, anecdotal) experience I have with applications
implemented in these languages make me think they'd run faster if
written in C/C++.
