Re: Intel & Netscape invest in RedHat

heh ... i guess i need to reread what i type b4 i mail it eh? what i meant
was if only linux programs and linux itself supported mmx and 3dnow (i know
some do already, but i mean if all new programs for it would) and i
personally would like to see it supported in the kernel if it would make the
kernel faster and more efficient.
