>>>A little more investigation shows MANY people use the words "powered by" on their websites including Westwind and PAFOX. It looks like Micheal was involved in the development of the logo but the link back to the UT is no longer working. Maybe Micheal can chime in with what he knows.

>>>>>>I asked him, when he drove with me in my car from Oslo to Prague, whether I could use "Powered by Visual FoxPro" on my website, and he said that I legally could not. At that time Ken was in charge of the VFP division at MSFT, so I guess he knew what he was talking about.
