Ok thats what I was thinking, like when I had my old p4 with ht. You could assign certain processes to certain cpus, but it was really only theoretically 2 cpu's, ht just made it switch back and forth between the two threads I guess you could call them.
I'm sooooo eager to go out a grab one of them 805's, but I've told myself I need to wait and see what next gen cpu's will be coming from intel and amd, maybe quad core .
If I were to get a dual core processor, prolly opteron 165, and I ran folding on one core, would the other core be free to run whatever I'm doing, games, word etc? Or when I'm not doing anything, have to foldings running, one on each core.
1and1 is the best. I've got their 500gig transfer package and its great. If you want to see what kind of speeds you get from 1and1 you can test from my mirror, also maybe a traceroute to 1and1.
