Actually, as the article submitter suggests, I think Apple is a safer bet. C++ and Java never gained much traction at apple, but objective C has. Objective C is based in C, like C++ is, however it implements an object model very similar to smalltalk. If Apple is interested in moving the language forward and make it a serious contender in the OO world, it wouldn't hurt to have OO daddy on board.
