Talk about putting whatever spin you want to, so you can spin the scenario to fit your believes.

I still come back to the fact that there seems to be some development going on, successfully I might add, without VFP being used. I know some folks find that absolutely amazing. But it is possible.

I've been to several MSDN tours, not once has there been a question from the crowd about getting more data features into VB 6 or .Net. I think there were just a few more VB 6 apps written in the last 2-3 years then then VFP apps in the last 10 years. But those folks in VB 6 must of been dreaming. Cause it's obvious you just can't do data without VFP.
