Much better than Artek Ada is the once-validated Meridian Open Ada (83),
now available from D.C. Heath in Indianapolis, 800-334-3284. I've used it
on a pocket computer with a 2MB SRAM card configured as a disk drive,
and *no* real disk drives, floppy or otherwise! It runs great on a 7MHz
8086/8088.
Artek Ada was a subset (never validated), and it had bugs, especially in
the Native Code Translator. Although I produced the very first version of
my Ada Tutor program with it, I gave up on Artek Ada a long time ago.
R.R. Software's (800-722-3248) Janus Ada for DOS also runs great on
an XT, but I don't know if it's still available.
