I can get Delphi Professional for $300. I can get Visual Basic
Professional for 
the same money. I can get JBuilder Professional for the same money. I
can get C++Builder
or Visual C++ for the same money. I can get ISE Eiffel for about the
same money. 
These are complete versions, no restrictions and strings attached. 

How much I have to pay for a version of ObjectAda that has the GUI
Builder enabled?...
