The main issue is older versions of windows don't "understand" hyperthreads and think each thread is a separate processor. This means they think assigning two servers to different threads on the one core is just as effective as assigning the servers to different cores, which it obviously isn't. I don't know exactly when either windows _OR_ Linux schedulers wised up, though; I just know they have.
