O_o really?!?! that's crazy. Didn't know so many people used it - thought everyone went over to NXC and RobotC and stuff.

Yes, a lot of people use c-like programming languages for the NXT.
But 97% of the people who buy the NXT set don't know a thing about text-based programming and want the easier option.

YES, I'm finally a part of a majority!!! Haha, I plan on learning some C based programming. Maybe after I get a second NXT brick.

"Maybe after I get a second NXT brick" - Why not now? You can have both types of program on at the same time. The only limiting factor is space, and NXC code takes up much less.
