Les PInter on selling VFP apps (Post: Paalbalk Huissen)

From this thread:

Les Pinter has a nice strategy for selling VFP apps.
He first shows to his audience, most likely managers and budget-responsible people, the whole myriad of classes and possibilities of VB.Net of C# or whatever they can come up with.
He is driving them crazy with all the things you can do in .NET to a point where they ask him for a price to develop that must-have application XYZ.
He gives them the price and the time to deploy the app and tells them there is an alternative.... and then says, "nahhh, you probably won't be interested, it will cost you only 25% of the price I just mentioned but it won't be interesting of you". Well, those budget-responsible people ARE interested then, and then he shows them his "special framework, developed in C++, AKA VFP".

He drives their minds to a boiling point with another show-off from VFP and compares that with the things he just showed to his audience. And shows that it is indeed, remarkably quicker, and, what's more, cheaper!!
