Hi David,
Thanks again for bundling in the architecture-specification flag into
the numpy superpack installers: being able to choose sse vs. nosse
installs is really helpful to me, and from what I hear, many others as
well!
Anyhow, I just noticed (sorry I didn't see this before the release) a
minor erratum in the release note wrt this feature, which reads:
> Automatic arch detection can now be bypassed from the command line

>
> numpy-1.3.0-superpack-win32.exe /arch=nosse
>
> will install a numpy which works on any x86, even if the running

However, the actual command-line should be:
numpy-1.3.0-superpack-win32.exe /arch nosse
Probably anyone advanced enough to use this feature would figure that
out, but no harm being clear...
Thanks,
Zach
