Absolutely correct. Minor brain fart, there, as they say. <g> Thanks
for catching that and correcting it! =8^)
(I was trying to emphasize that with the AMD design, at least, it's still
a single piece of silicon, only with two functionally separate cores, like
two CPUs in one but cooperating a bit better than two entirely separate
CPUs would, and chose the wrong wording to convey what I wanted, so ended
up conveying something rather different, instead. =8^\ )
