Their dropping support for Fortran actually fits into their statement of support of x86 as a server platform (I don't like this, by the way). Aside from the outward indications, Sun keeps to the same line that they will continue to support x86. I found it interesting that they have also jumped on the Gnome bandwagon. They are dumping CDE (I don't know the timeframe on this one) in favor of Gnome, but, then again, so are a number of other vendors. Tom
