What's one thing you want to do with your robot that can't be done in C with structures? Sure, its not a full blown class, but its close enough. Just because something is newer doesn't mean its better.

There is absolutely no reason for IFI to change their hardware. It works well and people are familiar with it.

Plus, C# blows the pants off of Java, IMHO.
