Go might have a few Oberon influences, and it was what made me look at it in first place.

However, even Turbo Pascal was more expressive than Go in terms of language features (not taking the GC into account). Delphi even more so, specially if one takes into consideration the VCL and IDE.

But, it would be nice to see someone come up with a System 3 Gadgets library for Go, or an environment like BlackBox Component Builder.

I totally agree. Blackbox is particularly kicking butt in Russia. I recommended Go because it's mainstreamed with all benefits that entails for developers and employers.
