OS X is UNIX, so pretty much *any* application is going to use both
CPUs in *some* capacity. Stuff for OS9 had to be specifically written
to "see" the second CPU, but not stuff for OSX.
If I run one process, it pegs both CPUs at about 50% load (varying), but
if I run two, it will peg both CPUs around 100% load.
