Thanks, Dan. Although the press release didn't say anything about Athlon's new instructions per se, I think the gist of it was enough to assume that Microsoft would support them.

I didn't know MS supported "Athlon New Instructions." Where did you see this?

Dan,

That's good news....looks like Sanders hope to get MSFT's support with Sledgehammer may not be so far fetched.
