>How depressing to hear about Visual FoxPro not being 64bit. I honestly think this will be the end of FoxPro. Maybe if the public would scream enough, M$ would hear our cries. :(

Not immediate death, because in the beginning many people will work with AMD/Intel EM64-bit PC and only file servers, where are large DBs will be pure 64-bit.
Second issue is expectation that after 2010 80-90% of the business will be web-based. This means - large DB and webapplication hosted at some server.
VFP is extreamely useful for datacentric stand-alone or C/S apps, but .Net(which has 64-bit version) is archtectured for web applications.
Expectations are that most of end user devices will be small Notebooks, PocketPC(PDA) or SmartPnones, where VFP do not works at all :-(
Do not expect M$ to listen any cries. They listen some and in newest VB will be implemented many of VFP data processing features and they will continue to add some of nice VFP features in .Net framework, but I do not expect M$ to go beyond VFP10
