AMD considers Clearspeed math co-processor

It has been over a year since I last reported on Clearspeed, the company
that made waves on the hardware scene in 2003 with a massively parallel
floating-point processor aimed at accelerating math-intensive
simulations. Now AMD wants to tap Clearspeed to provide a math
co-processor for their forthcoming quad-core Opteron, a combination that
would provide some serious compute bandwidth for scientific computing.
