double/Single BUG?

An evevn simple case that shows a strange "bug" in the framework then the
erlier post:
Dim xSng As Single = 6547.972
Dim yInt As Integer = 8000
Dim d As Double = xSng * yInt

the value in d is not correct! the value in the Watch window for xSng * yInt
is correct and not the same as d

am I totaly out of the main stream here doing such "strange" computations?
