I thought the Atom only had one core. |

This confused me for a little while. The Atom is indeed single core but it has hyperthreading which is like virtual cores.

And aren't those little threads active! I really can't believe how effective this thing is for doing this sort of thing. |

It would be a BIOS option to disable it, if available. It's on by default and I don't think there is an option to disable it on the Minis. Mini 9|2GB RAM|64GB RunCore|Intel 5300|Windows 8 |
