IMHO both 1.0c and 2.0b. As far as xBase is concerned I have found no
windows xBase runs faster that the DOS counterpart (until recently).
Have also given Delphi+Halcyion and Delphi+Apollo a try besides VO (+
ODBC). Still cannot get a satisfactory processing speed I always find
in plain DOS. ( Excluding compiling time wasted during development
which in average is more than twenty times longer if we do it in DOS )


I think the point is to make users understand what a program is aiming
but certainly it also depends on the configuration they have. If they
are talking about intranet then IMHO we should surrender since DOS can
hardly do it - then it is the time for us to get Clipper off of our
mind - and think about another tool - say Java in this case - which is
very Clipper (IMHO).

I have experienced that a lot of users who in one day shout for a
Windows version, but when it is ready, almost immediately switched
back to the old DOS. A sometimes-quite-hard-to-understand-phenomena.
