The first Aranda product will be shiiping RSN. This incarnation will 
support Pascal (MPW, THINK, TML(?)). Future, separate products will 
support C, C++ and other languages. The Pascal version will sell for $995. 
(Ouch!) The other language versions will be even more expensive. They are 
offering a "fully functional" demo disk for $19.95.
