Scumbria, <The geometry and lighting calculations are now being done on the graphics processor, and the physics is becoming much more complex, requiring SIMD on the processor. This will require direct SIMD usage by the game developers.>

This is quite a change in your stance from a year ago. Back then, didn't you argue that SIMD was going to be rendered (no pun intended) obsolete by the new graphics processors?

Well, I guess a lot can happen in a year.
