And that works as well. Not that I really care about my CPU usage when
I'm watching divx's, since the machine rarely do something else then.

And you're right, the MP's are the SMP version, though the core isn't
exactly the same. I don't recall the differences right now, but they
exist, and it makes the MP's a bit faster in database and similiar
stuff.
