- They are currently selling 2.0 in six-packs. However, when I called for my
- free upgrade disks to the most recently patched version of 2.0, they said that
- our unlimited license is good, but that I was to install one copy of the
- executable for every six users, or some such nonsense. I hope that when we 2.0
- users upgrade, that we will get this same treatment, although it sounds a bit
- kludgy.

- To reply to the originator of this thread, no, the claim that Foxpro needs
- a dedicated server is a twisted lie, probably concocted in the bowels of Fox's
- competitors ;-).
