None, actually.

(dragging this back toward relevance) You'd think that someone with a
shrink-wrapped PC product like Aonix could get a compiler box on display in a
retail outlet. I'm sure compiler vendors are way ahead of me on this, have
done all kinds of studies, and concluded that it just wouldn't be
cost-effective to try to sell that way. But it would sure be nice to see
someone try. If niche products like VisualBasic and J++ can make it there,
I'd think Ada could too.

T.E.D.
