Sorry, but this argument is completely wrong: At the time Linus
started Linux, porting to other hardware was a hug task that
involved years of work. Today, every large distribution routinely
build generic i686 build. Why not Meego ?
Speed.  Seriously, go measure it with it turned off, it is very
noticable.  And on these tiny netbooks, you need all the speed you can
get.

There's a reason MeeGo is the fastest booting and running of _all_
distros out there at the moment, and this is one of them.
Easy to say, but what real facts can you show to support your claim ?

I just got a report from someone today that analized the boot times of
all of the currently released distros, and MeeGo was the fastest.

Please show, this is interesting.

The booting process has been analyzed by many peoples the last
couple of years. I have not read all of there conclusions, but from
what I remember, reducing the I/O activity (in number and in
latency) was a far biggest point than the SSSE3 set instruction.

Agreed, it didn't have much to do about SSE3, but when the accelerated
graphics portion takes over, _that_ is the part it shows up.

Again, you failed to list a single Meego package that will not support a non SSSE3 machine by design. Others kind of accelerated graphics optimization exists aside of the SSSE3 set.
