Absoft is very interested in the continued evolution of its Fortran tools
for Opteron and Fortran 2000. The first release of the Absoft
ANSI F95 compiler for AMD64/Linux was recently announced. This product will
continue to actively evolve and Absoft will introduce additional
programing tools for AMD64 in the future. For product details
