hi all,

i'm curious about your thoughts about the recent generation of amd's
64bit chip and the p4 ...
it seems, that the amd chip isn't as fast as the p4 if you compare the
floating point performance (what's essential for dsp), but on the other
hand it doesn't suffer from the denormal bug (and several pd / ladspa
object still suffer from denormal problems) 

... i'd be really interested in your thoughts ...

burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across
the stars and in the middle you see the blue centerlight pop and
everybody goes "Awww!"
