    I think I'm missing the point here. Care to explain?



    I was referring to his comment "go back to Germany..." (it was clearly meant to be insulting by the tone of his voice and the gestures he made), just wanted to make clear that he was no white racist but somebody who shouldn't actually say such things. Sorry if my comment has been a little bit confusing.



    I was about to ask what the [censored] that was about before I saw you answer Pierres question.
    Sorry, for a moment I thought what the hell?



    I can understand how you feel RC... If someone doesnt do a job properly, he/she doe snot deserve it IMO

    If you had a little more time, you should have complained to his manager. And if that was not acceptable to you, then go up the command chain. That type of response to you is not acceptable. No way. That person should be fired.

    The OS should be able to distribute load nicely between applications, and no special support is needed. When running only one app, it has to support threading to be able to take advantage of the two processors. AFAIK, apps like photoshop have supported multiple CPU's for a long time already.
