 Hi Cy,
 CW> It was a great time.  Imagine 1800 foxpro fanatics (ok, maybe a few

 1800 people???? Wow! Now I know why I haven't received my copy of 5.0
 yet - MS ran out of them at Devcon ! Hopefully my copy will arrive
 this week - I'm tired of reading the pamphlet on it .
 CW> Yes, its faster, and leaner.  But its only 32 bit, no win32s anymore.

 I'm glad it's "faster and leaner" than 3.0. I bypassed that version because
 of the horror stories I heard about it's speed (still got good ole 2.6 Win
 and Dos versions and they go like hell). My pamphlet says "Typical
 install: 85 Megs, Maximum install: 190 Megs". I very curious as to know
 what's in the other 105 megs (above typical install). Hopefully I'll find
 out soon.
 Gotta run. Take care and have fun with 5.0 (enviously ).
