Well, you won't get any argument from me about the ease and power of
floating-point for DSP.

But, let's not forget that ProTools TDM is fixed-point!  Maybe Digi will
decide to join this party, I sincerely hope they do, and if they we need to
address fixed point DSPs.

I think if this first topic is any indication, we find ourselves ultimately
taking a second iteration through the list.  So then we know we'll have an
interesting discussion about audio data types, which will ultimately be
reflected in the target audience.
