Most programs I use are multi-threaded. I really wish you people would quit spreading this myth.

Hell, even Quake 3 is multi-threaded.]]>Jul 23rd 2007 3:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/23/intel-cuts-prices-on-quad-core-chips/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/23/intel-cuts-prices-on-quad-core-chips/Jul 24th 2007 5:23AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/23/intel-cuts-prices-on-quad-core-chips/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/23/intel-cuts-prices-on-quad-core-chips/Jul 24th 2007 5:35AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/23/intel-cuts-prices-on-quad-core-chips/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/23/intel-cuts-prices-on-quad-core-chips/Jul 23rd 2007 12:54PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/23/intel-cuts-prices-on-quad-core-chips/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/23/intel-cuts-prices-on-quad-core-chips/Jul 23rd 2007 6:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/23/intel-cuts-prices-on-quad-core-chips/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/23/intel-cuts-prices-on-quad-core-chips/Jul 23rd 2007 12:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/23/intel-cuts-prices-on-quad-core-chips/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/23/intel-cuts-prices-on-quad-core-chips/Jul 24th 2007 8:31AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/23/intel-cuts-prices-on-quad-core-chips/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/23/intel-cuts-prices-on-quad-core-chips/
