Hello Dave;

>Prominently displayed at the "World's Biggest Bookstore" in downtown Toronto three week's ago is "what's new in Visual Foxpro 8.0". The World's Biggest bookstore is in the heart of downtown toronto with a computer book section of some 5000 square feet. The place is open more than twelve hours a day.

Bad buyers over there.. Must be fired ! :)

>Rick Strahl is no longer a VFP MVP...he is spending time on C#...

Good for him.. He is getting new knowledges.. New experiences to build new amazing applications..

>the price of his VFP web store fell thirty three percent....

Good for us (and for him).. The price will be more accessible..

>Kevin Macneish is waving the white flag on his VFP framework...

Maybe he didn't find the exactly niche for his framwork.

>Whil Hentzen is publishing Linux books...

He will sell much more certainty.. Opps, I'd like to tell you the number of Linux user are strongly expressive..

>Many high profile VFP developers are leaving...
>
Leaving.. Means to forget many and many thousand of dollars expended with research, developing, etc.. Who's going to do that thing (with good mental health)

>At a prominent developers conference Ken Levy played "the best is yet to come" by Frank Sinatra...

Why he should lie for us ?

>
>Well folks it looks like VFP is as dead as 'ole' blue eyes....
>p.s. the 'ole' is not an acronym for "object linking and embedding"

I didn´t buy yeat my 8's copy.. But we will do soon..
