National is evidentally running Genix on their system, and LMC (Logical
Microcomputer in Chicago) says they will be supplying Genix with their
system with a month or two.  LMC is presently supplying the Unity port
(by HCR) which is quite slow, and they are expecting a x2 speed up with
Genix.  HOWEVER, Unity does include F77 and Genix does not. {my experience
with Unity F77 is that it compiles slowly and executes slowly on short
programs (x10 VAX780 no fpa) but with long fltng pt executions it does
much better (106 sec LMC vs 37 sec VAX on one benchmark).}  LMC says it
will supply F77 as an option with Genix, but i dont know whose version 
it will be.
  
    please let me know if you hear anything.
