>I have a friend who had a couple of wives who were absolute knock-outs, a playgirl bunny of the month, another was a Hooter magazine centerfold (certainly not the church bulletin). I asked him what it was like, he said like roller coaster ride. He's now single (has a beautiful daughter though). This thing with Etec is a roller coaster ride and I need something I can stay married to.

Yep. .NET is reality and it works. It will be around for quite a while (or paths to a followon will be clear). There are a lot of other alternate (alter.NET?) realities as well that exist and will stick around.

ETec is an intermediary tool to allow VFP developers to stay within a VFP like development environment. Suggestions that it would be used by other developers are ludicrous IMO.

ETec has missed their window of opportunity. Developers who want to move away from strict VFP development have by and large done so or are in process.

My point is that developers should be looking for reality now if they haven't moved from VFP already. ETec may (although unlikely) wind up with a product, but hopefully nobody looks to that as the future path.
