I would say it always depends on what you want to develop and which platform you want to use.

Web:
Linux/Apache environment: PHP, Perl or Python (PHP my favourite)
Windows/IIS: ASP.net (Visual Studio Express gets you started quick and easy)

Desktop:
Windows: C# (Again Visual Studio Express gets you started quick and easy)
Mac: Objective C (Cocoa)
Linux: C or C++

I am not too sure if there is still a cross plattform compiler for Delphi (Prism ?) which would you allow to use Delphi on Windows and Linux.

C# can be developed on Linux as well using Mono instead of Visual Studio.

As I said, there are a lot of languages you can start with, but it always depends on what you want to accomplish and with which technology.

I personally started with PHP and Delphi, but that was a long time ago.

Nowadays I prefer using:
PHP5 -> Websites and Server Backends
C# -> Windows Desktop Applications and Silverlight using C# as a flash replacement
