so for you guys who have experiecen with this cpu, do you really
"feel" it??
np - you are assuming i have experience with them ;)
you need to understand, it's like a dual CPU , NOT like HT (you
can , I think ,
have HT as well as dual/quad core...maybe not.. ? ).

Seems like you can. See: <http://www.webopedia.com/DidYouKnow/
Hardware_Software/2005/dual_core.asp>.
As for multicore support, I thought it was better with -CURRENT (ULE2
as of late sounds like it can support concurrency with multiple
cores / CPUs better than the 4BSD scheduler), but running -CURRENT
comes with a price, namely stability.
The GNU/Linux crowd (or at least some folks in it), were raving that
later versions of gcc, i.e. 4.x (coming to 7 sometime in the near
future maybe) had better multi - core / CPU support as well in terms
of optimizations and junk. But that's just fanboy/ricer ranting,
maybe.. or maybe not..
