Elmer, re:SETI@home, I received several email responses from disgruntled 3DNow coders. Apparently, SSE optimizations are included in the SETI@home client by virtue of the compiler.

3DNow! optimized versions were developed by several people but the SETI organization rejected their usage because they were swamped just trying to keep their servers and radiotelescope running. Since the project is almost finished, it is unlikely we will ever see an officially sanctioned 3DNow!-optimized SETI@home client.

I did notice that the PowerPC outranked PIII in single PC implementations. Must be that MOTOROLA COPPER PROCESS.
