According to an article in MIPS magazine (issue currently on the stands) Silicon Valley Software is now shipping a FORTRAN compiler for the SUN 386i the supports the Weitek FPU. MicroWay also apparently sells a Weitek FPU and board assembly that accepts the 387 and plugs into the SUN 386i socket. I have not used the product and have no association with either company. The SVS compiler allegedly produces faster code than the SUN product and MicroWay has a good reputation in the PC field for its support of 387 and Weitek products. Michael L.
