Speaking of computers, Intel has designed a way for one processor to act like two. Intel has asked motherboard manufacturers to disable the ability, so that servers have an advantage over desktops. Why make it an add-on anyway? If the processor has that many leftover resources, then Intel is just wasting their efforts. SMT should be left on, by default, and non-multiprocessor OSes will ignore the extra "processor" anyway.
