“Most of today's operating systems and desktop applications, such as interactive games, are multi-threaded for use on multi-processor systems, providing higher performance. In these systems, separate processors and supporting hardware and firmware schedule and execute code in parallel (http://cedar.intel.com/media/training/hyper_threading_intro/tutorial/index.htm).” Basically, with this Hyper-Threading Technology, a single Desktop Hyper-Threading-enabled processor can simultaneously process two threads of code, improving the performance of multi-threaded code running on

is, “Do I care??”. Well, I believe that EVERYBODY should appreciate any kind of new technology that can help people (even if it does not affect me greatly). So yes, I do care that this new technology has been established. I believe I would notice a difference (especially compared to my current PC/laptop!) on my system if I had Hyper-Threading Technology because it basically offers a greater overall system performance for today's demanding applications.
