Sorry,  I should have said that the minimum cost is six figures per
year.

For NT:
Minimum supported : 10 seats.
Cost per seat per year : 12,000 US $
Total cost per year : 120,000 US $

For someone who just needs a license for one or two programmers, the
effective cost is the cost for 10 seats.

I am sure that it makes sense in the context of ACT's business model.

But I am not sure that it makes a lot of sense for a team of two or
three that are considering using Ada.
