Acer one CPU

Hello. I have a aspire one 110 and I belive it has a single core processor. The funny thing is that cpufreq-info gives me two and Gnome system-monitor reports load from CPU0 and CPU1. Is this correct and I'm a happy user of a dual core machine or is it something wrong somewere. I'm running 2008.12 and I really like Arch.

Re: Acer one CPU

it's correct. the cpu is single core but has hyper threading support (SMT). the kernel reports it as two cpus.
