>>Hiring other developers, a decent # of my clients do care what the app is developed in, we use a SQL based backend (either MSDE or SQL Server) so with the next version of SQL Server, guess what, it's .NET based (of course the t-sql will still run), but the backend being .NET/CLR based will give more of an incentive to learning more and more about .NET. Not a biggie, accepting change is an important part of the development world, I'm just at that point that I'm realizing I need to say goodbye to my long time pal, VFP. I'm going kicking and screaming of course and I've been thinking it for about a year and a half now, but the MS position of not marketing, not complaining, no changes, dying on the vine is what has helped propel me to make that change.

Of course it won't - ODBC/OLE-DB interfaces still work so far, but MS is giving .NET a performance advantage over VFP in accessing SQL 2005 (well, kind of expanding the performance advantage that .NET already has in accessing SQL 2K)
