Default Doesn't XP Pro's liscense only allow 2 cores per machine?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but...

The Product may not be used

by more than two (2) processors at any one time on any

single Workstation Computer.


How do quad cores work?

Or does that mean that no more than two PHYSICAL processors? Someone with knowledge please elaborate.

It's per-processor, not per-core. Multicores are fine if they are still one processor.
