Perhaps those people deliberately disabled SSE in their BIOS for testing purposes. Which is valuable, because very few Firefox developers are testing on non-SSE capable CPUs. In any event, you misunderstand the cause here. We're not backing out MSVC changes just because of these two users. We're backing out MSVC changes because other infrastructure (the update server, the installer, etc.) isn't yet prepared for the SSE-required world we appear to be moving towards. Making those changes deliberately in 49, rather than being surprised by it in 48, ensures a better experience for everyone (e.g. Firefox doesn't mysteriously start crashing when upgrades happen). -Nathan _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
