RE: Floating point..

I've had a chance to run some quickies on the uVAX-II.  It
supports F, D, and G floating.  For F and D it really is a
dead heat with the 780!!!  (And the 780 doesn't bother with
"G" floating...).  I was suitably impressed.  (The prog. is
a "dot" product benchmark which simulates a 2008 X 2008 matrix
multiply).
