I have one.  In fact, Henrik made some very nice changes to Symbolix so
it would work (well!) with the FPE.  I have never had any problems
attributable to the FPE, and it makes a _large_ difference in floating-
point intensive programs.  I have it sitting in slot 3 (or 4?) so that
it's out of the way, not overriding a slot's function, and still accessible.
