Detect Multi-Core Platform

Saw this interesting tool on the Intel Website that allows you to find out if the machine you are working on is a multi-core, multi-proc, HT technology enabled etc. Very interesting. Check it out here. The algorithm is also available. So I presume there will be applications written specifically to maximize such hardware advancements ...

I know the subject is surely good enough to catch attention. But it is infact true too. The reason for a long pause or silence on the blog is also attributed to these things that went behind the scenes.

Will be still based out of Bangalore. I am really super excited of this role and am sure there is more of SQL stuffs that are gonna get into this blog moving forward. I must thank eachone who has been intrumental in making my 3+ years with the community fun. Wanted to assure you that the association with the community is gonna get more fun now :) ...

Thanks again - Journey has just begun ...
