The May issue of Byte has an ad for intel's RapidCAD Engineering
CoProcessor.  It is a drop in replacement for the 386/387 duo that
supposedly gives up to 70% speedup on certain CAD functions.


So what's the story here?  What does this look like, how much of my 3d
graphics stuff has to be specialliy coded to take advantage of it,
etc?
