I agree. The web site and their marketing leaves one a little doubtful as to the corporate-ness of these guys. Perhaps because English is not their native langage? I think I remember seeing a comment somewhere by one of them that English-speaking customers were not their biggest followers.

I sent a few comments to them about how they need to improve their website just to make it and them seem more professional. They have been very receptive, and the are super-nice, I just think they need some serious marketing help. Maybe its too early for serious marketing because the product (VFP Developer Studio) is still early in it's life and not ready for full production.

I think their stuff is cool to see, and to realize that it can be done. I don't see it as a product that could posibly produce enough revenue (for them) to justify the time they are probably putting into it. However, maybe that is not their motivation. I do lots of things (in software and computers) simply because I want to and I like it, even though it could never be justified from a time or cost-savings or revenue generating standpoint.
