My new MP systemm at work (soon to ship to a custommer.. (rats..))
is running -stable as of today..
even when I turn off Hyperthreading in the bios,
FreeBSD still finds and uses the extra 2 CPUs..
(i.e it looks as if it has 4 instead of 2)

Nothing I can do will force freeBSD to run with only 2 CPUs.
