David,

Well that's more or less what I told to my boss, but he said me... with internet now you can have tons of stuff, with ICQ meet the people... I mustn't learn him nothing of this... :)

>(you will build a network of close friends).

That's neat!

>You will learn of the lastest directions in Microsoft's product plans and strategies, and be able to talk with the VFP development, support and marketing people.

An this is algo good

>You will go back home a happier developer, and therefore much more productive.

I hope so...

>See ya there next year?

I hope so, I have this year to convince my boss this would be very interesting for us..

Thanks for your reply.
