Do I understand correctly that this will be an issue with my
motherboard as long as I am using more than one core of a multicore
cpu?

How in the world did my motherboard make it onto AMD's list of
recommended motherboards for a dual-core AMD cpu?

And how can Nvidia market this as their stable "Business Platform"?
I'm feeling cheated. If Steen's post is correct, then my motherboard
clearly doesn't do what it claims to do.

And if this is truly a hardware issue then we should see the problem
occurring in other smp-using OSes too, right? Has anybody seen
problems or reports of problems with this in Windows, for example?

This is disappointing. I thought I did my research.
