I sell the PC and Mainframe verions.  The PC version is priced at a bit
under $200 (for a lab license, unlimited machines at your site, copy to
take home, etc.).  The mainfram version sells for a bit under $500.  Both
come with a 45 day, free trial period.  You can call me at (206) 685-1218.
I'm PATTIS@CS.WASHINGTON.EDU.  My address is in the book.  Oh, solutions to
all the problems in the book are included too.

A Mac version (built into an entire environment, including structure editor,
debugger, etc.) is avaliable from Phil Miller (PLM@GNOME.CS.CMU.EDU). A
similar environment exists from Pascal.  I think the price is about $25/copy
with some kind of reduced price site license (talk to Phil).

Various other organizations sell various versions of Karel Simulators.
Prices and quality may vary.
