Hi everyone.

In my free time <g> I use to be a professor at the local university. This year we are giving to students a course intitled "Client-Server Software Development", an optative course of IT Engineering career. We have sixty students, averaged 24 y.o. Several of them asked me about the possibility to learn Visual Foxpro. In fact, the course is biased: 50% wants Delphi, others wants FoxPro. As course responsable, I cannot have biased opinions, in spite the fact I have ten years with Fox products and they give me plenty of satisfactions. Of course, I want to teach VFP, but for instance my support staff develops in Delphi, so we have a little problem. The students are now looking for a wider point of view prior to make a decision. This decision could affect their professional performance as well, provided they will finish the career next year.

Any ideas? Any URL with interesting information about comparisons with other front end development tools? Ant ethical implicancies in this matter? Any thoughts about experiencies with Delphi when compared to VFP? Any information about Borland's future?

TIA
Carlos
