Intel is adding instruction sets and even instruction formats at a
torrid pace. I still have to read the AVX programming reference. It's 717 pages long. I've run translated software on Alpha. It was a pain to do the translation. Apple did a good job on Power to Intel but Intel was the faster chip and they could at least map AltiVec to SSE2.
