So when we all get together in 2016, when Foxpro is no longer supported, who will be the one knitting? There are some of us who should not get ahold of knitting needles! :o)

>I joined the S-100 Computer Users Group (we met monthly) in Silicon Valley in 1980. The members had great passion for the S-100, even after the PC and MAC’s were introduced. My job required using and maintaining the S-100, PC’s and MAC’s. Around 1986 I dropped out of the S-100 users group. In 1993 we were moving to another state so I decided to get rid of my S-100, in which I had over $6000 investment.

>I saw in the San Jose Mercury News that the S-100 Users Group still met, so I went to a meeting just before we moved. People met faithfully each month I was told. One lady was knitting. Others reading magazines. No one was interested in my offer of a free S-100. The lady knitting said, “We get together because of our community. We stopped using the S-100 years ago”! :)
