nailer: Thanks for the feedback. Is that the point you took away or did you skip reading the rest of the article? The context of that quote is not about single core versus multi core. It is about the intent of your code. It is a quick rule of thumb. For example, keeping the UI responsive is a goal you have regardless of the cores of the machine. To deliver on that goal you can use threads (multithreading) but that would not be equal to parallelism. The larger point here is the difference between the term multithreading and parallelism. Post back on my blog post if you have any questions or suggestions on making that clearer.
