I'm no expert, but I believe the iPad is a Pad not a Mac. And not a

PPC Mac. Not OS X even. It's more of an iPod/iTouch appliance with

oversized screen than a general purpose computer.

But I don't have one and am just going from what I've read.

"VFP3 for Mac will run!" is a bit of an exaggeration for any platform,

I'm afraid. I did some cross-platform FoxPro 2.6 DOS/Win/Mac app

development, but VFP3/Mac seemed pretty troubled.
