Confused the hell out of me one time. We built a Dual Xeon Server w/HT for a customer of ours. I went into task manger and into performance and there are 4 CPUs listed.

I was totally confused. I kept looking at the motherboard, seeing 2 CPUs, and then looking at the screen and seeing 4
Back to Anubis' original post, wouldn't one be better off getting a single CPU mobo with HT enabled than buying a way more expensive dual CPU system?
