It's difficult to see the logic in using Modula2 if
a reliable Ada(R) compiler is available. This is
precisely my situation : I use Modula2 as a "poor
man's Ada", on my Amiga. Not that it isn't okay,
but Ada leaves Modula2 far behind.

Oberon seems to be a "poor man's Modula2", which
I guess makes it a "welfare Ada" :-) I see no
use for Oberon. With the ever-increasing availablity
of "standard" C, Ada, Common Lisp, and yes Modula2,
it has no unique problem domain in which it excels
by enough of a margin to make it worth the hassle
that is ALWAYS involved in using a new language.

Sad what can happen when famous intellectuals try
to recapture their glory days, isn't it :-)
