"Many of the suite's more interesting features center around a new technology Microsoft alls the Common Language Runtime (CLR). All but one of the development tools in the Visual Studio suite--Visual FoxPro-- will compile to this common runtime. "


---This doesn't really suprise me, unfornuatly. MS has been treating VFP like a step-child forever and each time they come out with a new version I'm amazed. I've actually started doing some SQL Server 7 stuff because I just don't think VFP is going to be around...hopefully I'm wrong. VFP is like a Vampire, they keep saying it's dead..and it keeps on breathing...

This is quite fitting:
