Alrighty Antony forced me to post something so ... yeah here it is

> Huh? MMX SSE SSE2? What the heck?

.... Just check this list for the list of processors.

SSE2 (Oxp GALFT SSE2):
# AMD Opteron
# AMD Athlon FX
# AMD Athlon 64
# Intel Xeon
# Intel Pentium M
# Intel Pentium 4
# Intel Celeron (1.7GHz - 2.8GHz)

SSE (Oxp GALFT SSE):
# AMD Athlon XP
# AMD Athlon MP
# AMD Sempron
# AMD Duron (1.0GHz - 1.8GHz)
# Intel Pentium 3
# Intel Celeron (533MHz - 1.4GHz

MMX (Oxp GALFT):
# AMD Athlon
# AMD K6-2
# Intel Pentium 2
# Intel Pentium Pro

> How to *properly* test the experimental builds?

If you encounter any problems while testing my experimental builds, don't freak out, just follow the following steps:

- Identify the type of the problem. Is it memory leak? UI bug? Unusable features? Or crashes? et cetera
- If the problem is memory leak, report the problem to me immediately
- If the problem's feature- or UI-related, check the patch list first then report the problem with/and the probable cause.
- If the problem's a crash, it would really help if you can include the cause (dll, exe, whatever) in your report.
- If the you have other problems, use the report form and try to be clear as possible.

It is possible that some problems are codebase-related. If it is the case then I can't really do anything about it.

Oh and one more thing. b#tch and Complaning won't help a bit, i will just simply ignore you and everyone would just laugh at you for being a retard.

I've just had a quick test on this "JayfromTaiwan" build.

Seems to me, [sdt=7991]Netscape Prototype 2[/sdt] is slightly faster than this build, but I could be wrong, as I am running in on Windows 2000 Pro under Virtual PC for Mac.

which means not available in Virtual PC?

In VMware for Windows and Linux and Virtual PC for Windows you should be able to use SSE extensions in a 'guest OS', provided the processor in the PC supports SSE.

Virtual PC for Mac is different, since Virtual PC for Mac has to emulate an x86 processor. I guess it would depend on whether or not the processor Virtual PC emulates supports SSE or not.
