Mercy...16 cores in a server. Question...ot..but...
If I build a workstation (I'm tired of slow processing on my years-old P4) with a quad core processor, can I assign certain apps to run on only a certain core and restrict other programs from using that core? Or do I have to let Windows (will be Windows 7) use the cores as it will? I'm trying to understand the possibilities and benefits of multiple cores. > > You're better off on multicore systems.
