        I read that, and what he described could be done by the Dabo  
Application Wizard in less than 30 seconds without writing a single  
line of code. Rather than use that to claim that Dabo is better, I  
think it illustrates the silliness of the original proposal. Apps like  
that have nothing to do with real-world development; all that  
demonstrated is how good VFP is at developing trivial apps. Any app  
that you can create in less than an hour is meaningless as a  
demonstration of what the tool/environment can do; the true test of a  
tool is how it handles projects involving many months of development,  
with many developers and revisions; how it enhances your productivity  
and helps you translate your designs into a working app.
