Unless and until hardware prices drop to zero, there will be users for whom
any cost is an insurmountable hurdle. And, there will remain users content
with existing capability who only wish to upgrade software in order to
maintain security and/or access to software demanded by their needs. Ordinary
users don't care when SSE3 was introduced. They just want to keep using what
ain't broke as long as possible. Many don't see justification for capability
of newer hardware causing software to demand that capability either,
particularly when it breaks arch portability or produces no more than a
modest, or no, detectable performance improvement, among them, me.
