>Yep, good question, John. I kept getting the typical sales approach, rather than hard facts from various sources. I need to put the fire out on my tail now.

Cecil;

I am very glad you started this thread. It is providing great information and examples of VPM. This is the type of dialogue developers need and it is timely - not based upon something from several years ago.

By the way in my “other life” I am a flamenco guitarists and play in California these days. I am involved in software development only to pay the bills. :) Just give me my guitar, a singer and dancer con un poco de vino tinto, and then all is well. There is nothing like being a "starving artist", which is what I was before I got married 36 years ago.

My wife Enriqueta (Katy) is from Peru and her family is from Zaragoza, Spain. Katy dances and sings flamenco.

Hasta pronto.

Tom
