It seems fairly certain to me that Ada will be around long after IBM
is gone. They just made a "mjor" product announcement of new huge,
raised-floor, special-room _mainframes_. Jeez!

Don't put down mainframes for they are the brassboards of the next
decades desktop computers. I for one appreciate the money that
the IBM stockholders are willing to put their money into developing
these brassboards. My wife who owns some IBM stock is not so
pleased :-)
p.s. The USA Today reported that Next is selling its hardware
product to Canon and will try to become a significant software
company. Perhaps their understanding of the hardware will help
them to develop better software. Does anyone else see a pattern here?
LMI Lisp Machines Inc.
Rational Machines Inc. correct me if this wasn't the 1st name of Rational
Next
