--removing altivec core?

Is this a tip for PC users? Altivec is part of the instruction set on the G4
PowerPC processor. I'd be curious if it does anything on a PC? Removing it
on a G4 Mac should slow down quite a few filters...

I've never had crashing problems with any version of PS on a Mac, except
when I tried to run some third party PS plugins with not much memory and big
images. The worst ones were always things that wanted to talk to hardware.
Running any version of M$ Internet Explorer at the same time was an
additional way of guaranteeing a lock up :-))

bye for now
