SQL Server current versions: C++, some tools C#
Old versions: fortran

FORTRAN? I would have thought something like MUMPS would have been more appropriate. Or maybe FORTH (that would be a challenging development process).

Hmmm, perhaps Fortran in early versions.
Anything since 10 I would be pretty sure is mostly C/C++, perhaps some assembler.

Does it matter what language SQL Server or anything else is written in?
The important question is 'Does it meet its objectives?'. IMHO the answer with SQL Server (and Sybase, DB2, Oracle, MySQL, plus many others) is YES.

It shouldn't matter. None of us are going to touch the code, in fact, I think most people running Linux/open source wouldn't touch the code.
The only thing I could do is push MS to move some stuff to assembler if they could get gains (Or to a lower level language). I shudder a bit to think of things being written in .NET. Even if development is quicker, and hardware is overpowered, I'd prefer things to "pop" a bit more.
