  19. Interesting. I had no idea that Motorola had any multi-threaded
  20. CPU. I understood that another company (who dominates the PC market,
  21. but will remain nameless :-) actually have at least one CPU for sale
  22. with multithreading used internally but not visible to the
  23. customer.
