What I find a bit unique is that they are willing to buy it back if we don't switch to GHS. (We have allready used up 2*30 days evaluation copys, since the evaluation job is done when there is free time from current projects) We are talking about a lot of licences here so they are willing to go the extra mile I guess. Rational Apex is a product we have talked about as well. But I have heard roumurs that Rational is dropping Apex and that it has a pricetag that is so high that it's silly. Now were thinking of running next iteration of one project with Gnat and GHS to see what would be the best solution. All code is adapted to both enviroments so there would not be too much work.
