Hi,
I just booted my Dell OptiPlex SX260[1] from a usb memory stick with
FreeBSD 8.0-release on it. Part of the dmesg output is:

Full demsg output on the FreeBSD page[2] for this machine.
Why does FreeBSD think that this machine has "non-unform processors?
Ok, the Pentium 4 in it can proably do hyperthreading, but that isn't
much to talk about.
What excatly is non-unform here?
