Sometimes I wonder how much more productive Apple could be if they used a language other than Objective-C. Would they be more or less productive and able to get software/services done more quickly with another language?

I'm not sure where you get the notion that Apple doesn't use languages other than Objective-C; good engineers use the right tool for the job, including assembly, C, C++, python, ruby, javascript, prolog, lisp, perl, ... and sometimes even Objective-C.
