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. MDC Robert A Duff wrote: > > Cool.
