Dear Darek Maksimiuk,

Well, if you show me the C++ program which I showed in
news:alpine.LNX.2.00.1002151055530.17315@Bluewhite64.example.net
running on your XMOS development kit at a speed which when scaled up
for an XMP-64 would be faster than an Intel quadcore machine, then I
would be able to get an Ada compiler for it, if I could convince a
funding agency to pay for an XMP-64.

Please let me know what happens.

Yours sincerely,
Colin Paul Gloster,
