I recently installed FC10 on a Lenovo S10 Netbook and have now

a surprisingly easy installation.
I noticed, however, that the "Guidance Power Management" shows two CPUs
(and I assume that the Atom is not a multi-core processor).
Any ideas?
That's because Atom N270 has "hyperthreading" and shows up as two cores.
In my tests using x264 to encode a short clip, using two threads gives
about 12% speed-up.
