Scumbria - <I suspect that the benchmark numbers will be impressive, but unfortunately they will not tell anything about the specific value of the fast ALU. >

What I would like to see is a technical presentation. When's the next chance? MPR's shin-dig?

Scumbria, Re: I suspect that the benchmark numbers will be impressive

Have you go over to ace hardware ? There is quite a
length discussion about the FPU performance and seems that
people in general think that it will be good only if SSE2 is used. For the old x87 opcode, it may be worst. Any comment ?

PS. Glad to see that we now can have some informative discussion about Willamette
