dual core - can i just swop my amd 3000+ for a x2 3800 dual core?

Sorry to steal thread but is there any way to set the affinity of a process in linux? for example start up a process on a specific core, or is that all locked to the kernel?

Thats unnecessary under Linux. *nix based systems have been doing SMP for a long time and are better at it, though like with Windows it depends on the software being written threaded too
