Mike,

>Maybe it's hard for you to see the situation from my perspective, which seems to be shared the majority of the VFP community. We're dropping like flies out here, John. Every week, Microsoft is losing loyal customers forced to chose between the language they love and their immediate survival. Does this make sense?

Hard? What do you think I have spent the last 15 years doing? Developing in Fox, that's what.

I didn't join MS and suddenly forget everything I know about being a VFP-oriented independent developer. To the contrary: I'm hoping I can bring that experience to the table here when asked.

Perhaps you misconstrued what I wrote before. All I am saying is that

A) I'm not even remotely involved with marketing.
B) The product is not released yet.

When the product is released and the marketing starts, then we'll all see how that goes.
