What about a page comparing speed and diagnostics across both windows and
linux.
Know of a few people who would be interested.

Also why the different compiler switches
on different platforms ?

eg

absoft win32 ft95 %1 -02 -xINTEGER -stack:0x8000000

absoft linux f95 -03 -xINTEGER %1

also with the intel compiler.
