Nothing kills strong marketing faster than a weak product.
Walnut Creek's Ada CDROM rates an A+ in my opinion, but in one directory
there lurks a most hideous program produced by none other than STO (see
above).  If anyone wishes a test drive, the program (called ADA_COST.EXE)
resides in:
 
\ASR\MSDOSADA\ADA_MET1.ZIP  Ada metric analyzer & software cost estimator
 
According to the marketing blurb in the zip file, the executable was
created using STO's reusable Ada source code library. If the quality of 
a reuse library compares to this product, I'll pass.
