C461 Referee Report
-------------------

This is a useful well written paper. I would suggest that the authors
add a short discussion as to what other applications and chip architectures
(e.g. Sun or ICM) would benefit from their techniques and if improvement factors
would be equally impressive.
As a minor point, I would suggest the phrase "Intel SIMD Technology" used
in title and abstract is obscure to most readers. It is clear from paper but
title starts one thinking of iWARP i860 and other Intel adventures.
Something like "optimal Pentium Floating Point" or equivalent would be clearer
