Core 2 Duos have the EM64T extensions. Core Duos (Yonah) are a mobile chip only, not a full line of processors like the Core 2 architecture (Merom, Conroe, Woodcrest).
I suspect the Core 2 chips do not suffer from the same security implications as HT-enabled processors. I'm not certain, but I think each processor has access to half the cache so the only reason it's shared is that it's on the same die and both cores are using parts of it. Josh
The fact Core Duos are only 32-bit means Intel is still only concerned with shortend gains on the Windows market, not long term migration to 64-bit PCs like everyone else... And banking on Microsoft has never been a solid idea; its too bad banks use Windows; there's a security nightmare, but a topic in and of itself... -brian _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
