Well, same goes for C++, year 2010 and we are not getting a standard gui  
library (not saying it is necessary)

For the second part, C might owe its fame to Unix, i don't know it is true  
or not. But you have to admit it is a great language. Still there are many  
C programmers out there and i am sure they got their reasons to use it,  
quite valid reasons. I would use it over any language out there if there  
wasn't C++.
