Re: IBM Rational Ada

The reason it is out of stock, I believe is that IBM is coming out with 
the full Ada 2005 version, or at least I hope that's the reason. But you 
should expect to pay around $500, that was IBM price for the Ada compiler 
back in 2006-2007.

Now, back in Oct, through Nov, 2008 there were a number of software sellers 
including Amazon.com that had the IBM Ada compiler in stock, all below $200.
