Clearly, the article is written tongue-in-cheek and is good for a laugh. But since there is some underlying seriousness to it, I feel it should be pointed out that the article labels dBase developers as endangered, citing the decline of DOS as the reason. FoxPro developers are mentioned as an exception, and IMO rightly so given VFP's ability to develop modern, n-tier, component-based applications. For that matter, the choice of dBase tables (or, more correctly, xBase) as the back-end data store is optional for the VFP developer. Today's VFP developer is a much more highly evolved creature than yesterday's FoxPro 2.x developer, and having adapted to the changing environment is therefore much less likely to find itself on an endangered species list any time soon.
