If Fox always comes out on the short end of an arguement why is it that you are a Fox developer?
>

You know how I got my current assignment???? By being an expert level Fox developer who:

1. Had a diverse skill set (technical, analytical, business, etc);
2. Knows that Fox is a legacy technology and;
3. Did not try to push Fox and convince the client otherwise...

I am a Fox developer by virture of my experience. That said, most of what I do today is not Fox.

Lets say you bring a $500,000 .Net price tag and I bring a $50,000 VFP. I suppose you could counter anything but you may have a pretty weak case.

Flawed argument. Assuming the pricing is correct, Fox - or any other tool for that matter - does not enjoy a 10 to 1 price advantage. On that basis alone, I could easily dismantle your argument - as it is a product of a fantasy. You see...if it is truly a 500K type job, your 50K bid would NEVER be taken seriously. And, if it is a 500K job, then regardless of technology, in all material respects, that is what it will cost.

>BTW what does you guarantee cover?

Given your flawed example, it is not something you would have to worry about.

Any more questions????
