I'd like to ask some opinions about several cpu specs which confused me so much. Please bear with me if my ignorance leads the way. Some cpus in your site reads: Multiprocessing - Uniprocessor (e.g. Core 2 Duo E7600) and Multiprocessing - not supported (e.g. Pentium Dual Core E6600). What does it mean? Can a certain cpu has a limited multi-tasking capability? Any answer shall be appreciated. Thanks!

It means that you cannot put two of these processors in systems, that accept two or more processors. But even with one Pentium / Core 2 Duo CPU you still get two cores, which means that you can run two programs at once.
