Well, it is on WCG for now helping them out right now. Moddolicious wasn't sure if it would really do anything on a single core CPU. A P4 with HT it can because it has that fake "2nd core" but the A64 is just a plain single core CPU.

We'll see, but right now its helping WCG :)

Well the SMP client basically says "You don't have a multi-core CPU" so it won't run :( Oh well.

hmm maybe it only works on intel single core with HT then :(

Well HT is seen by the OS as being a second core even though it really is just a "fake" second one. Enough for the client I suppose.

Well if you know anyone who breaks a pin or two - or three or four ;) - off his dual core s939 chip I'll take it :p: even pay a few bucks for it :D

hehe yeah i saw the awesome job of replacing pins on that other chip - well done :D
