John can certainly defend himself but don't you think that's a pretty broad statement? Microsoft may not have marketed FoxPro to the satisfaction of a lot of us but saying they killed it is a gross oversimplification. Let's not forget they kept it alive for over 10 years (and counting, sort of), doing one major rewrite and issuing 5 more versions after that.

>>>Although I've been wrong before, I can't believe Advisor will hold another VFP DevCon. This year, there were only 35 attendees. They've basically killed it with too much cost for too little benefit. As Tamar pointed out, you're better off selecting one of the other conferences.
