I recently asked about Ada for the Mac in comp.lang.ada, found a supplier,
and called for the price, and was shocked.  For the information of all of you
Ada lovers out there, here is what I found:
   Meridian Software Systems, Inc.
   Laguana Hills, CA
   (714) 380-9800
   $1195.00
I was told it would be shipping in about two weeks.
Oh yes, this compiler runs under MPW.
Unfortunately, I am looking for an Ada compiler to learn the language on,
not to become a Department of Defense contract programmer, so I can't afford
this kind of money.  If anybody knows of an Ada compiler for the Mac (MPW or
otherwise) for $300 or less, please let me know.

Disclamer: I'm big enough to speak for myself, but not big enough to speak
           for anybody else.
