>>I think I did. Was Tom Rettig in it? I knew very little about Fox but I became interested in attending because of an article in Data Based Advisor that described Dave Fulton demoing the powertools in FoxPro 1.0 or perhaps 2.0. In the demo he said stuff like "what do you think of this" and then changed a color of a screen, "and the crowd went wild" according to the report.

Another cool one I read about but was not there for --- Dr. Dave saying to a PC (or was it a Mac?) on the stage, "Computer, run FoxPro!" And the computer started up FoxPro. Then he said, "Computer, run dBASE!" "I can't do that, Dave," the computer said (LOL). He definitely had a flair for marketing.
