That's where HyperTransport comes in -- it offers two schedulers in the hope that two virtualized cores can put more stages to use. It only works on the horribly inefficient Netburst architctures -- you will _never_ see HyperTransport on the Pentium-M or Intel's newer processors. The concept of multi-threading on a single core lives and dies with NetBurst.
That would be 'HyperThreading' above, not 'HyperTransport', and I know you know that. ;)
