I would think VB and java are both more widely used for writing client apps ... and both are far less powerful, much slower. Pretty much all modern operating systems are written in C++, and any code that needs to run as fast as possible. It takes much less time to write code in C# than C++, and it's easier to go back and change, but it also seems to run 20 to 30 % slower. For a lot of things that doesn't matter. For others it does.
So you're being too hard on C++. It's fallen out of fashion when it comes to your garden variety code, but it still has its place.
