Average Customer Rating: 4.5 (2 reviews)

Rating: 5
Summary: Excellent as both an MMX programming tutorial and reference.
Comment: Given this book, I was able create several MMX routines for performing high-speed bitstream compression. Each instruction is discussed in great detail with clear diagrams and examples. Useful rules are given for calculating the exact timing of MMX instruction sequences so that you can optimize the u/v pipeline pairing of instructions. An excellent choice.

Rating: 4
Summary: Thorough and clearly written, with good example programs.
Comment: Most of the book is written in a expository way, but some chapters and all the appendices are useful for reference. The example MMX programs are great and the accompanying CDROM is more than worth the price of the book. One drawback is that the book needs to be updated for the Pentium Pro and Pentium II vagaries.
