Yes, there is a market for any and all Ada-related products for the Mac!
Remember that historically Mac programming was done in Pascal; learning Ada
would be just a baby step for those programmers. Compiler vendors: why not
tap that market?
If you're not conviced: I just took a seminar at Carnegie Mellon. In the
classrooms where they teach CS there were row and rows of computers...all
Macs!
I am told Carnegie Mellon is the best school in the country for learning
CS, and they chose Macs. You the Ada compiler vendors have chosen the best
language, so why the best computer, too?
Symantec, Metrowerks: how about an Ada compiler for the Mac?
Apple: how about helping port GCC/GNAT to MPW? (If there's anyone out
there with info about an MPW port, or about how to do such a port, or is
doing it and wants some help, please contact me.)
Perhaps a better name for the Java compiler would be AppleMagic?
