I second Ed's advice re: c++.  If you know what you're getting into,
then more power to you, but if you've never written a sizable app with
c++, then I strongly suggest looking at other languages.  C++ is very
popular because of momentum--any language will do what you want (they
are all "fast enough" performance-wise), and most of them will cause
less frustration than c++ :)
