I didn't see Java on either your "maybe" or "reject" list?

Alas, writing GUI apps seems to be more about familiarizing yourself  
with a set of libraries (or "classes") than mastering the language  
itself.

You didn't mention Basic-like languages other than VB: RealBasic for  
instance (not free, but not too expensive, either...)
