>>I think that word "laggard" carries a payload. ;-) There seems to be an implicit assumption that anybody using VFP in 2007 is backward or slow. It's not true. Many of those using VFP do so because the proposed replacements simply aren't as good.

>>FWIW, I've exercised the same judgement when buying cars. since 2000 I've probably saved $50,000 by refusing to upgrade every time a new model came out unless there was a definite reason to do so. IMHO there never was, so I saved my $. Others upgraded every time. When I upgrade this year I'll have the same vehicle as them, but I'll be $50,000 ahead. So who's the laggard? ;-)

The time will come the coocks will leave too, so you will have to do your own coocking. The orchestra will leave too, so you will have to do your own singing, so will do the rest of the crew and travelers. I hope you leave in time, because it might get dark and lonely there at the bottom of the sea ...
Pascal, I like it. Very nice
