I don't have such CPU but I run the first program anyway. It printed C:\py>th.py thread 1 started sleep time: 0.01 3.63174649292e-006 8.43682646817e-005 0.000164825417756 thread 2 started sleep time: 0.003 0.000675225482568 0.000753447714724 0.00082943502596 1 1 1 2 1 1 1 2 1 1 1 2 1 1 1 1 2 1 1 1 2 1 I got bored and tried to stop it with ctrl-c but it didn't respond and kept running and printing the numbers. I had to kill it from task manager. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
