We're thinking of buying a NeXT Station to run an X windows application (we 
have the source) written in Fortran (ugh!). This brings up two questions: 1)
What f77 compilers are available for the NeXT and how good are they
(i.e. is the code as fast as comparable C code and can you still use the 
NeXT development environment)? and 2) Can you (how do you) run X windows 
applications on a NeXT?

Please reply by email to cut down on net.clutter.
