>I think we all agree. ;-) It's not the first time: certainly I enjoyed the pageframe that accompanied VFP3, since before that we had to use images to draw our own tabs in FPW. Now in 2009 we find ourselves doing it again, creating graphic buttons and mimicking Aero-style transparencies so our apps can look like WPF. Of course once eTc gives us compilation to WPF and/or Silverlight, we'll be in clover. ;-) In the meantime we can have apps that looks like Aero on XP, even with themes turned off. ;-)

Some of that may be Vista's generally more sluggish gui but I suspect 32bit may be an issue- though almost all the apps I'm running are 32bit, even Firefox so I can keep using 32bit plugins. The app is much quicker on Win7.
But I don't want to spend time coding GUI controls for VFP that emulate newer built-in tools, waaaaaah....
