I have a large (~100k lines of C) application that needs its floating 
point performance speed up by several times. We can't go to a $10-20k 
platform because our customer base can't afford it (we run on 386/486's).  
We can't go to integer because we don't have a year to debug it.  I've been 
looking at i860 PC add-in boards but they run around $5k.  I've found a 
TMS320C30 board that we can get in quanitity for around $2k (we'll need 
several thousand and it must have graphics on board), but I'm not real 
confident about porting such a large app to it.  If you have experience 
porting C programs (the bigger the better) to any DSP type system: 
TMS320C30, AT&T DSP32C, AMD29050?, MM96002, or whatever, please tell me a 
bit about your experiences (ANSI compatablitiy, performance, developement 
tools, etc).   I'll post a synopsis.
