>As for FORTRAN?  This week, I actually downloaded an application which required a FORTRAN compiler.  This is the only FORTRAN application I've ever needed.  It's not old code, the first revision came out about 10 years ago.  More than once, I have queried Google with the phrase "Why isn't FORTRAN dead yet?"  For some reason, it lives on.  I can't say that I understand why.  

	Well, for one thing, no one can justify rewriting all the numerics
libraries... LAPACK http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LAPACK , NEC-2
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numerical_Electromagnetics_Code (and likely
NEC-4).
