As a long time user of Oracle Developer products ( as well as VB and VC++ ), this categorical canard can't stand unchallenged...There are many large-scale applications out there built entirely with developer2000 ( and its predecessors) and they provide their users with completely satisfactory performance ( as much as any software can provide)..

Depending on the way you like to develop apps, you may prefer VB over Dev2000 but this is a far cry from Dev2000 being a bad product....

( as to reliability, this may be the only time I have ever seen MS held up as the model of reliability! )
