There's something strangely surreal and downright awesome about reading this comment from you, over 25 years later. Huge amounts of respect for what you and the team achieved.
- Stratoscope 12y agoThank you! We always tried to have fun with the names. Alas, my other favorite name didn't make it into the final product. VB Controls were called Gizmos in Ruby, and VBX was the Gizmo Interface. I don't know what happened there - I think Gizmo was just not a serious enough name for the Microsoft of the day. But really, Control instead of Gizmo? Boring!
