>What's going to be the quickest way to get VFP 7.0 as soon as it's released? Order direct from Microsoft? Order from a distributor, like amazon.com? What about an MSDN subscription - do MSDN Universal subscribers get new releases like VFP 7.0 as soon as the product is released, or do they have to wait until the next scheduled shipment? Inquiring minds want to know...

Rick,

If previous experience (VS 6.0) is any indicator, MSDN Universal (and I think Professional) subscribers will receive it about a month before it's available through retail outlets.
