A friend of mine has a Compaq/386 and is looking around for a
XENIX system that would allow him to access the largest amount
of virtual memory. His primary application is running fortran
programs that need huge amounts of memory ( >10Mb).

Could anybody recommend a XENIX system for his needs ? Does anybody
know how much virtual memory SCO Xenix for the Compaq 386 allows you to
access ? Does their fortran compiler allow you access that memory (or
can you only get to it via C) ? No reviews that I have seen address this
point and my friend would like to know before he sinks his money into
the OS.
