Maybe the first choice of word was more relevant.... that's about how long he 
lasted!

In Ken's defence he really was given the equivalent of Mission Impossible with 
no budget, hardly any staff and no commitment from M$ whatsoever. Despite Ken's 
enthusiasm about VFP it was also fairly obvious that his career progression was 
always biased towards the .net technical side of M$. 

Although having technical people act as "marketing" folk for products 
invariably brings in enthusiasm and obvious technical ability the best 
Marketing people are those who can play the business politics game and 
have/make contacts that are also political heavyweights. Unfortunately I 
haven't seen anyone in this role who has been involved with VFP since VFP3 
days. Sad but true.

Having met Ken Levy in Prague, I was not impressed. Was not a good speaker, 
which for his job I would have expected. And a bit of a week character as well. 
So I would be surprised if he could have a say.
Don't get me wrong, it is not an anti Ken comment as I could not do it either. 
But I think he was in the wrong job.
