Very good point! This is quite possible. If TwinBASIC delivers perfectly on compatibility with the VB6's GUI model and project format, VB6 would be finished. There would literally be no reason to use VB6.

TwinBASIC is the real deal. It could already compile and run any non-GUI VB6 application. I strongly recommend any VB6 lover support the effort. I don't care that much about VB6 since I have long moved to .Net and even I am rooting for them.
