>Well VFP 7 actually is still there but is no longer in the front page. It was replace by XP and VS6.0. Why?

Home page content always changes, generally to list what is new, or just to change so repeat visitors see new content. This has no reflection on the MS support of VFP. You will see VFP listed in various places besides the /vfoxpro home page, like on Monday when the MSDN subscription pages are updated.
