Yeah but with hardware, its always ahead of software which is logical because how are you suppose to write software for hardware that doesn't exist?
Software changes very quickly, hardware less so and you are not likely to change it quickly. So you should always buy a little bit more than what you need to grow into it. Its sort of like the logic with buying clothes for teenagers. Buy it slightly bigger because you know they will grow out of something that fits just right.
This past year alone, I have seen many vendors deploying multi-core and parallel processing tools for developers so the software should change very quickly and without you knowing it.
As for setting the core. This is not that complex. You could script something and throw it into your windows scheduler if you really wanted some kind of solution. But I'm sure someone out there already has a tool to do this. But yes I would want a smarter way of managing how the cores are used. But I suppose your OS is suppose to be smarter than you when it comes to stuff like that.
