Just for your interest, my Meridian Ada system for my AT&T 6300 cost:

	$129.95	Unvalidated compiler
	  39.95 DOS environment package
	  39.95 Utility package
        _______
	$209.85 Sub-total (Unvalidated system)
	  50.00 Validated compiler upgrade
	  10.00 DOS package upgrade
	  10.00 Utility package upgrade
	_______
	$279.85 TOTAL VALIDATED ADA SYSTEM WITH DOS SUPPORT

Guess you should have bought Meridian when they were nobody :-) !

Peace, Steve Frysinger
