Knowing what CPU one owns is very common knowledge since it is one of 
the first item in any computer sales person pitch.
Having the best performing version of Blender possible can only enhance 
the user satisfaction, /especially /if he is of the kind that know 
nothing but how much horse power there is under the cover of their 'puter.
Finally, and most important for me, I would love to have an official 
optimized build that would be well supported and reliable. Those on 
graphicall.org come and go and are too often... funny shall we say.

What do you think ?
