yep - sorry folks - I thought I should have clarified this at the time. It 
is dual core, with 2 threads per core. Each thread can have it's own 
independent clock speed, so one or all can fire up to full speed or draw 
back to power saving independently. The upshot is that 4 things can be 
happening in the same clock cycle, and the point was to demonstrate that 
parallel processing is here on even the smallest machines. My netbook is a 
EEEPC 1015PEM, it gets about 6-8 hours from a charge, and can compile our 
non-trivial scala codebase just fine, along with producing many of the Java 
Posse episodes using Audacity. It fits in my bicycle pack as well. I love it 
:-)
