I suggested that based on research done by or for me, VB would not be the best choice to develop a new product today, nor would VFP for similar reasons. Reasons are multiple but include the real risks of proprietary ownership of developers by vendors and limitation of choice to one platform.

"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us.
