Task Manager on 256-Core Windows 2008 Machine
 

It is most likely true that there aren't many of us who have access to a machine with 256 cores at the moment and unfortunately neither do I. I received the following screen shot of the Windows task manager showing 256 cores running on Windows Server 2008 R2 which uses the same kernel as Windows 7, both of which can now accommodate 256 logical processors

It's a SuperDome64 with 128 Intel Itanium CPUs with HT on FYI, not a single CPU ;)
