I wonder...

I thought the recommendation for any MSFS sim was to turn off the whateveritscalled in the bios as FSX etc cannot make any use of multi core. Though I suppose faster and faster CPU's are probably making that advice redundant or moot at best.

Believe it or not, that screenie was taken on an Apple machine! It's a MapPro at school, but I suspect it was a special order. From what I can find on Apple's pages, they're normall sold with a maximum of twelve cores. And as far as FS, I really doubt it would run all that well. These machines are intended heavy duty rendering applications and running multiple virtual machines at once. Here's the properties screen...
