Re: The core is not the whole apple
>"So what happens when a couple come in with simultaneous toilet emergencies?"
One waits as a CPU does.
Them after emergencies, the two get back to work in parrallel.
Bottlenecks do not decide the definition of a core.
You are talking performance, not core here.
By this logic Intel should be sued for selling 'two core' Pentium-D which only used a single memory addressing causing a massive bottleneck.
