Any one know where can i see details about Pentium IV? Like benchmarks
(no windows ones), or articles ?

Another question: When Intel released Pentium MMX the principal changes
from Pentium was some instructions in the processor, bud only
softwares ables to "look for" that instructions worked better. With
Pentium II ==> Pentium III was the same thing. My question is: Are
there projects in unix word that take care news softwares become ables
to works with this "instructions"?

Thanks,

Ata.

PS: Sorry for so poor english.
