>I have seen quite a few threads here recently, complaining about how corrupt Microsoft is, and/or how Microsoft is trying to kill VFP. These complaints have been going on for sometime. I have a very simple solution for everyone complaining: go to Linux/Borland/Oracle, whatever. There are obviously alternatives out there.

and when MS wants to kill VFP it will do so. It won't have to "try".

>By continuing to support Microsoft by giving them your $, then turning round and complaing about how immoral they are, or how they aren't promoting VFP enough, you are coming across as hypocrites.

Interesting theory - but since I myself don't feel like starving to death I have to use MS products. What it boils down to is you have to be compatiable with the rest of the world, and for that matter for the most part I like MS products. Doesnt mean that they're not immoral - and last time I checked the USA Justice Dept. had a few things to say about Microsoft's behavior.

>By the way, Ken Levy is doing a great job promoting VFP.

Yep!
