Two-man garage startups considering the use of Ada for a hot new game idea? Ten million dollar shrink-wrap software companies considering rewriting their product from its original 'dirty' C to port it to run on the JVM? A manager at a Fortune 500 company, considering Ada for their new, improved, radar activated, HVAC control sytstem? A manager at an international bank considering what language to use to write a tool to check for Y2K problems in his COBOL programs? These are all clearly 'mission-critical' to their users. Does that mean the flyer is equally convincing to all of them?
