Is the new implementation of objects in pb9 exclusively  com technology that is packaged in a clever way?

You bet.

Does this mean that there is some advantage of oop that is not in the new compiler because of how it was implemented?

Sure, but why everybody is talking about OOP and don't pay attention to what is for me more important and powerful, like the ability to use and write low-level COM servers? Can you use DirectX 9 with VB6?

Even strong advocates of oop like the inventor of python think that multiple inheritance causes more trouble than it solves so I am not looking for something like that.

Using COM classes you get clean and reusable objects that are self contained. Using multiple inheritance, you get MFC  ;)
