I've heard rumors here of somebody porting the Gnat compiler to the 
DEC-10. I don't even know if there is still any hardware out there to 
run it on. I've heard tell of software emulators but I don't know if 
there is much of a user base. It would have been nice to see Ada running 
on a DEC-10 - back in the day... Now? I don't know what practical use it 
would be put to. Its not as if there is a truckload of Ada software for 
the DEC-10 sitting around going to waste.
