Beware of 4D...

Good product, lousy company, questionable future. Small, privately held, will not divulge company, directional, or growth information. Poor (non-partner) developer support and, if you criticize them, you will be ostracized and surreptitiously unsubscribed from their company owned network user group, and all posts negative on 4D will be deleted - nasty... End users beware of high and frequent upgrade costs and dropped support if not pay the price to upgrade frequently. Be advised to check out much better database alternatives from more stable and forthright companies that care about the developers who sell, and the end users who use, their products.
