Hi Ken,

>For some reason the Ballmer WMV video download link doesn't work. I have the video, but it wouldn't be right for me to post it online, and it might be online somewhere else.

Why not? Put it up on YouTube for posterity. :)

>That video Steve Ballmer recorded, it was recorded in late October 2001. But it was originally scheduled to be recorded at 10:00am Pacific Time on September 11, 2001. I was suppose to then get the WMV file later that afternoon to show to FoxPro developer attendees at the Advisor VFP DevCon during the evening event at SeaWorld at the Orca/Shamu show in San Diego - all of which ended up being canceled obviously. This was never known at the time, because the video was not announced in advance.

Wow, I never heard that story before. That was my first DevCon and an exciting one, even with 9/11. Seeing the Ballmer video there would've been a hit.
