RtCW supports 3DNow. So it's not Never. It's been here before SSE and after SSE.

<font color=blue>No programmer is going to want to waste development time on dead-end AMD architecture, either, when they plenty of other high volume ways to build in features. x86-64 will be the same as 3DNow!,

wbmw, the only way x86-64 will end up like 3dNever is if Intel produces a similar extension and mass produces it. All of you guys here maintain that Intel will NOT do that. Please be consistent.
