There have been reviews recently in Creative Computing and Infoworld
of two ADAs for micro's: JANUS and Supersoft.  The consensus seems to
be as follows:

Janus, while not complete, gives an awful lot of ADA.  It will not be
completed for the Z-80s but is a good buy anyway.  Supersoft is just
Pascal-warmed-over-very-lightly.  They are promising the world, but
people are skeptical they will deliver.

So, the upshot is, if you have a Z-80 buy JANUS.  If you don't, but
a 16-bit machine, and maybe buy JANUS anyway.
