RE:"So do I. And they should include Athlon optimizations, if available. But if you are going to include Lame, you should also include the optimized Canon Encoder, or the Microsoft one that also has Intel optimizations."

Actually, Lame includes 3DNOW support. I did see one review where the reviewer turned off the 3DNOW support "just to be fair. Athlon still won...

On the other hand, he made several comments "wow, this benchmark really shows the power of the P4s and SSE2 extensions". So he turns 3DNOW off for the Athlon and keeps benchmarks optimized with SSE2 support intact.

What a hoot. I see so much of this crapola I want to puke.
