I don't know what MMX is ;)  

But I think it's something like the VIS (Visual Instruction Set) that's
included in the 64-bit Sun UltraSPARC processors. There's also something
similar in SGI MIPS processors, a set of instructions for graphics
acceleration.

I didn't know Intel was finally getting onto that level..  ;)
