I'll be needing compatible FORTRAN and C compilers under OS/2.
The only company I know of even WORKING on a FORTRAN compiler
is Watcom, who has one in the beta stage.

What is the reputation of Watcom?  Good products?  I have never
bought anything from them, or even heard much about them, so before
I shell out near $1000 for their products, I'd like to get all
possible input.  Thanks.

BTW, how's the Developers Workbench?  I've also never seen it, but
will be needing it soon.
