Excuse me!

Perhaps you don't understand english. Please point out to me where I mentioned .net in my post? I am merely saying that fox is dying and all the diehard blowhards in the world are not going to stop its demise with well intentioned create-a-movement-du-jour attitude.

Is it you, who cannot see the obvious, who calls me brainless? LMAO...


>Please get my point, which I will not repeat unless you don't have the brain to get my message: This is not the right forum for arguments promoting dotNET

>Personally I can see that dotNET has potensials, and it may well be the future. It may also very well be that I will use it sometimes in the future whenever I find that it can solve a problem for me which I can not solve with VFP, and that will probably be many years from now. And it may very well be the biggest failure in computer history! Nobody knows. But that's not my point. Please reread my bolded text and try to understand my and others point here! This is a Fox forum, period.

>>I believe JVP is going to be vindicated in the long run. He was the first with enough guts to stand up and say what he saw as the "writing on the wall". He was tarred, feathered, scape-goated, hated, etc, because he wouldn't back down from what he believed. Any contrarian is hated and reviled even though they may be proved correct in the long run.

>>Why waste your breath? The die-hards here will never see the light, until the train flattens them in the middle of the track. Then they will stand up and wonder what that was and go back to their tried-and-true existence. Its safer not to take a risk...

>>>I agree 100%.

>>>By the way, pretty soon now we will have the same, boring discussion here at UT again, with the UGOI, like JVP, Rod P. and other preaching how good dotNET is, but they are of course completely neutral, they really don't want to preach and ya-da-ya-da...! And they of course understand that we don't want to listen to their stuff, but since they have seen the light, they feel they simply must tell us over and over again. Where is Billy Graham? :-)

>>>>Sorry to jump in, but, why are you so offended everyone doesn't want to jump on the .NET bandwagon? Why is it so hard to understand that the people here like VFP and are happy there's a new version? The timing is bad for them because they're looking at new ways to use vfp or vfp and .NET together, not convert everything...

>>>>>PMFJI...while I can understand the heightened sensitivity of the reactions here, can you explain in specific, concrete terms why the timing is so insulting?

>>>>>I'm sure you'd agree that endeavors in other areas shouldn't be delayed/postponed just because of what's going on with the VFP Beta.
