That's wrong as a generalization. We know many Ada users who regard Ada as the key to having some chance of producing realiable software for the NT environment. Most certainly if Nicolas finds that using Ada is making his company disappear in short time, he is doing something wrong. Either Ada is the wrong choice *for him* or the company or development effort is being otherwise mismanaged, but it is bogus for him to assume that his experience necessarily generalizes to all other companies!
