I haven't said anything for the longest time about .net/VFP, but it burns me when somebody posts an obviously biased slant on how good VFP is comparatively. We have converted and are in the process of converting 100,000's of lines of VFP code with just as much finesse and funcitonality as Mike quoted, and it is taking about the same amount of time to convert them. We are using 4 man teams with a QA and a product manager to do so.

And it takes insecure net/vfp wannabees to keep flaming the fires and defending an outdated, outmoded and out-surpassed product.
