I happen to have an Ampro Pentium SBC board, so that's the obvious choice. Anyway, my question is what is a good Ada enviornment to run on an x86 SBC target (Windows Host)? I've got the additional kicker that, since I'm doing this on my own time and money for now, it needs to be free or cheap. Later, when I show the boss how good it works (and you folks have convinced me of this part!) there will be the likelyhood of buying a "full" product. GNAT with RTEMS looks like an obvious choice, but I don't want to rule out any other solutions. I'd like to hear recommendations, as well as any hints or experiences on bringing up x86 SBCs (I've done embedded, and I've done PCs, but I've never done embedded PCs...). Thanks a bunch... Mike p.s. I'm *really* looking forward to doing some serious Ada concurrency...
