Intel Inside...kinda

My employer recently purchased several new laptops for the developers, all of them with Dual Core processors. The only problem is that the IT Support Staff installed a version of Windows which does not recognize the dual processor, and operates as if using a single-core processor, resulting in half the processing speed.

Now, after spending several days setting up all the software, development tools, network drives, etc., all laptops purchased in the last 6 months need to be re-imaged. Hello downtime!!!
