This result attained by Intel's dual-core processor is particularly attributable to hyperthreading (HT) - the division of the two cores into four virtual CPU units.

yes, the EE editions do

the multi cpu (xeon) servers at work with HT show as double the # of cpu's

so boxes with 4 physical cpus show 8 cpus in task manager

Yes, but it still won't help you post in the right forum newParadigm!

Yes the Extreem Edition have it - as well as the new Xeon

Yes but the only OSes that support Dual Core w/ HT are XP Pro, 2003 Server, and Linux distros

The lure of the 65mn chips are the overclocking.

An overclocked EE 955 might be able to beat an overclocked FX60, I'm not 100% sure though, I can't find an article about it. I know it's reasonable to touch 6GHz on water or phase change.
