I agree - it doesn't do their image much good. But one of the advantages
of the Sparc platform is that there are so many different Fortran90
compilers available for it, one or two of them tolerably good. It is a
pity that Sun's own f90 is not, in my opinion, one of those, but if you
have the freedom of choice make the most of it. Check the faq for a
comprehensive list of compiler vendors.
