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.. ? ).
dont forget that there may be certain features of FreeBSD (such as support for
certain hardware , ACPI functionality,etc) which may not work (well/at all) with
dual core (or, more accurately, will conflict with certain kernel options if
you want to make use of the dual core). I am **NOT** sure if there actually is,
but i used to read issues about this...maybe it was only about HT ?
Best,
