Since I mentioned earlier that we didn't have enough time to get vDSP  
up for ppc64, I thought I would in addition suggest one way that you  
can do something about it.

Apple is hiring.

If you're good, really good, you might be the one to help us make  
sure that key features like these get delivered to the right people  
when they should!

Ian
