>> made any comment because it is implicit… <<
No James it is not implicit… its the wording Emanuel is using, that is
confusing the issue here. PhotoShop is not a true multitasking paint program
therefore it cannot take advantage of a dual processing system… yes it will
run on NT with a dual processor but you can't make the assumption that just
because a software can run on a multi proc that you can actually take advantage
of it. QFX is a paint program which is true multi-tasking and can take
advantage of dual processors. The point is, we don't know at this point whether
3DS will support dual processors or not, it may be assumed that it will run a
dual board but taking advantage of it, is another story. For that answer you
will have to wait a few more weeks…
