Yes, Apple is going to come out with a powerful programming environment. But don't expect a good, powerful, bug-free, MPW-like system right away, and don't expect Pascal for a long time to come.

Developers for the //gs have been going through significant amounts of pain in working with Apple's development system. Grobbins.
