That is an interesting article.

So, if paralelling speeds things up, doesn't that mean that some
processes are waiting for hardware?  Or do intel chips actually
parallel?   

Paralleling obviously works great for human interaction (one web page
loading while reading another).  But if the processes are using up all
the cpu, paralleling shouldn't help unless there is a piece of
hardware/peripheral it's waiting for, right?
