Unfortunately I'm not familiar with fixed-point arithmetics, especially
with how to handle multiplication. So if anyone who has done this before
would step forward ...

Well, I did some naive tests: I probably did something wrong, but I'm
not seeing any significant difference between floating point and fixed
point (that is: integer). For multiplication the difference is not
noticeable (1.38s vs. 1.36s in my test program) and for addition it is
not that big (0.77s vs. 0.47s).

I guess we'll be fine using floating point as long as there is an FPU.
