That's not a very excellent thing to say.

It does. In fact, [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentium_III SSE was
introduced with the Pentium III], which was the
[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P6_(microarchitecture)#From_Pentium_Pro_to_Pentium_III
6th chip in the P6 (a.k.a. i686) microarchitecture series].
In any case, the details of microarchitecture history are pretty moot
here, because — in the current draft at least — we consider x86 platforms
without SSE2 support to be "unsupported". That is, if you expect Tor
(with or without Rust) to run on your Pentium II, it's your job to get a
clean patch to us.
