this is true. and if the software is only written for single CPU, your
dual CPU system may be even slower than Single CPU system.

and nowadays, CPU is speeding up very fast. buying dual cpu isn't
really goood choice if you run it as a  home user.
when you upgrade, u have to fork out twice of the money of a single
upgrade. and dual motherboard is very rare and expensive. if you need
to change the motherboard to suit fast cpu, u need to fork out more.
