but your airtight ad hominem attack has convinced me otherwise!
oh, good! that means we can stop arguing now yeah?
I must've missed the part with the alleged "ad hominem" attack...except for the end there. That last little bit was a bit attackish, but you set me up perfectly for that one.
This part of your post on the other hand...yeah, I can't find a part in it that wasn't a personal attack

Did you really need to bother someone else about that? It's right on the Microsoft site. (4th FAQ) Also...

1 physical cpu as in 1 chip? or 1 core?
according to the microsoft website and NeuralClone, they agree with each other. yeah XP home is limited to 1 physical CPU and pro is limited to 2. they said nothing of cores.
cores != cpu

The whole debate about whether Windows uses multiple cores or not is retarded.
the real benefits come from multitasking and applications that actually use the cores.

Again, your humor-detector seems to be malfunctioning.

I failed to find any information about core limits in their licensing policy.

Chip.

Yes, that was established a while ago. Please try to keep up.
Ask me about my secret stash of videos that can't be found anywhere anymore.

There is no info on core limits in that policy, but then again...that wasn't what I was saying now was I?
