Yes, AdaMagic is on my definitely-check-out list, but does it actually
address the audience I'm talking about?  Can a personal copy be had
for e.g. the $150 I spent on the Rowley tools?  And even that's
pushing it for students and hobbyists.

And what about concurrency?  How does AdaMagic provide for that?  I
don't see anything on their website that addresses that question.
