HT was just a kludge by Intel to try and squeeze some more performance
(and marketting collateral) out of the P4 when it realised that the
net-burst architecture was not working as well as they had hoped. For
some applications HT actually slowed things down.
To some extent all true *but* you will get argument on the "kludge" from
some... and Intel has not ruled out HT for future product AIUI.
