Actually, MPW from APDA comes with an assembler and many utilities.
TML II probably (certainly ?) does not come with the assembler.
So, getting MPW through TML is not like getting MPW from the APDA,
but I found the following:

(TML Systems) -- TML II + MPW       : $125 ($60 if you're upgrading)
(APDA)        -- Assembler for MPW  : $100
                                     ------
Total                                 $225 ($160 for the upgrade)

(APDA)        -- MPW + Assembler    : $200

So you get TML Pascal II for $25 or if you're upgrading, you
are given $40 to get TML II

BTW, are there any known bugs in TML Pascal (I or II) such as pointer
manipulation ? How about MPW ?

I hope this helps !
