Should be on.

For me:

F:\>perl -V:usethreads
usethreads='define';

You should get the same - on both machines.

I think there must be some slight difference in the scripts you're running.
Does the script on the laptop "use Config;" ?
What happens if you run (on the laptop):

perl -MConfig -we "print $Config{usethreads}"

For me:

F:\>perl -MConfig -we "print $Config{usethreads}"
define

Does it make any difference if (in the script) you replace
"$Config{usethreads}" with "$Config::Config{usethreads}".

Cheers,
Rob
