Simple question.

What are the difference between an interface and a class?

I'm not talking about what the compiler does with them. I'm
talking about what they were created to do, how they came about
etc.

If you have to explain to someone what a class is and what an
interface is, then you diff that, what is your answer?

vtables should not show up in your explanation(they would if I
didn't mention it and it shows that you are stuck on the
implementation aspect and can't see the forest).

OK, then. With that, I shall retire from this discussion :)

It would be nice if you could understand what I'm getting at but
it's like I keep telling you the earth and you don't believe me ;)

Almost surely we are arguing about different things. Mine is more
syntax substitution and yours is more implementation.

In any case, it doesn't matter because it will never be
implemented the way I think it could be so we are just wasting
our time(or I'm wasting yours, how ever you want to see it ;)
