Very cool. Intel SMT only? I guess they may be working with Intel because HT appears to be energy inefficient to start with:

Still, it's awesome if Win7 "fixes" that issue.

The only way to find out for sure is to 123bob it and find out what a system draws with Vista with HT off, HT on, AMD and Win7 with HT off, HT on, AMD.

I'd do it, but I don't have my i7 build completed yet!

Edit: Nvm. Mailman proved me wrong. No reason why I can't do it now!
