It is, especially when you don't have a dual CPU computer.
There are still very few of us who have one.  Duals are still
too big, noisy and expensive for the average customer.
This will, of course, change in the future (probably in the
near future).  When duals become more common, I am
sure the number of parallell chess programs wil increase
rapidly.
