The VFP9-S is just a block for building processors; and probably there are also some test chips. But I'm sure that most people on this list have never held an ARM processor with an FPU in their hands and had to implement a bootloader for it. I remember that there were FPU boards available for the Acorn Archimedes computers but that's quite long ago. With best regards Andreas -- Dipl.-Phys.
