Maybe....but I wasn't attacking anyone, just the topic. Who knows?

>>Pardon my interruption and I don't know if this has been said already, but isn't this a pretty lame topic? One is hard-pressed to find articles about the future of any language beyond the next version because MS is not going to give competitors something to compete against:
>>
>>I can see it now, MS announced that eventually VB will host 10 widgets so Inprise starts working on Delphi2001 that will support 20 widgets.
>>
>>The best thing one can do is point to reviews of VFP from the last release, point to what has been said about the new release and leave it at that.
