>>>>You have no idea what has been said in private by the gurus. Many of us talk directly to the people on the Fox Team. We have their email address, we have their cell phone numbers, we see them in person and sometimes we even stay at their house. Much of what is said is said in private instead of on public forums. We have fought very hard for FoxPro over the years. In fact, things probably would have stopped several years ago had it not been for us being so pushy about the Fox.

>>I learned programming with IBM 360 assembly language and it remains one of those closest to my heart, even though it's a grossly unproductive development environment compared to what we have today. There was just something satisfying about controlling every detail. Even C is a high level language compared to assembler. It really teaches you the fundamentals of how software executes.
