  Just because they're on different sockets... IIRC Dual-CPU P2 motherboards were pretty popular though I don't remember what was in the Netware servers where I first noticed the screensaver.

    Dual CPU is not same as multi-core. And dual-cpu systems were uncommon in the 90s because of their cost.

  Pentium Pro came with SMP options, from memory. Not exactly multi core.
