I hads LOTS of customers that can't move to Linux because our system (wich is very good BTW) is in VFP

>A single VFP sale leads to tens of thousands of dollars of revenue for MS? I certainly would not have guessed that. Of course there are no numbers they will show us but I find it hard to believe.

>>>Howeever, Jamie, consider this. If a business is running a VFP app, it means they also have Windows as their OS. It also probably means that they have MicroDoft Office installed. And many VFp apps are using SQL Server as their data store. So, you see, VFP indirectly makes money for Microsoft on other things < s >.
