OK, now for a major question, not all of us have time to rewrite all our
old code in C. So the question is what are the compilers that will be 
available for the nExt machine?  Will the company support anything or 
will it be up to some gallant third party hackers to generate the necessary
compilers to let everyone else use the beast?



Sorry to mention Fortran, but I use it.
