For all it's worth -- I was responsible for performing a complete
test of PSR's vectorizor at Sperry.  I was there when PSR gave us
their very first (and very bug-ridden) version and watched as the
bugs disappeared and some very nice features were added.

So -- if anyone wants some first-hand knowledge, ask.
