Guide: How to enable/disable cores on Mac's

I have seen a lot of questions on how to do this on a mac for testing purposes. Activity Monitor’s CPU pane is nice, but if you want a bigger picture of what’s going on inside your Mac’s CPU, navigate to /Library/Application Support/HWPrefs and launch the CPUPalette program. (If you don’t find it there, insert your Leopard install disc, click on Optional Installs, select Packages, and double-click on CHUD.pkg; that will install CPUPalette.) It will display two graphs showing how busy your CPU’s cores are, and let you disable one or more of them.

Sweet, nice find steve.

I'll add a link to this thread in the test I've been running.

Oh my,. SOMETHING that is harder to do on a Mac (deeper menu spelunking) than it is on Windows? Say it isn't so?

Cool info!

No, I think your mistaken, we all know that anything a PC can do, a Mac do better.
All that is missing is the correct shortcut key combination, that lets you select which core to active with out even having to open a seperate application.
