If anything, he was just saying - jokingly, I think - that it was MS "propaganda" and gave some examples of governments that denied certain undeniable events (as VFP was undeniably in VS 6). I see no "bashing" of anybody in particular. What is your problem with his post? Someone else in this thread tried to say that his "lit my fuse" comment came in his first post and that is obviously not true to anyone that can read.
>>I think you are getting his posts mixed up. They weren't related. Re-read the original post, then his post, which was second in order. You are not understanding his original post and are mixing it in with other, unrelated posts.

Visual Studio 6.0 was a dramatic improvement that marked the birth of Visual Basic 6 and embodied the idea of a set of unified services across all languages."
