There's a good example of why Ada loses out in lots of embedded markets. 
Its enormously expensive to try to address the embedded market and the 
payback can be releatively small. Maybe someone sells a million HC11 
processor based units, but they only need *one* compiler to build the 
code. Who's going to go develop that compiler?

Better to try to get a bigger target audience and see if the embedded 
stuff falls out from there.
