From article <1443@percival.UUCP:, by billc@percival.UUCP (William J. Coldwell):
: 
: Hopefully the more PAs that are sold, and the more MCs bought will make
: developers come out with IEEE versions.  As of now, the only 68881 versions
: of programs are for a 68020/68881 combination which won't work with the
: peripheral MC on the PA (because on the inline F-Code functions for the
: 68020).

	Not quite true, there are a couple of spreadsheets out there that use
the math chip via the IEEE libraries. Maxi-Plan and it's newest incarnation,
Plan/IT are two that I know of. Not to mention that great shareware game,
Moria 2.0!
