OK, let me try again.  Of course I assumed you were talking about the Deep
version, otherwise support for the second (third, fourth..) CPU is not there.

However - for the life of me I don't know how changing the GUI helps.
Single-threaded engine remains single-threaded.

On the other hand, if you are using more than one engine under CB GUI thus
taking advantage of both CPUs (i.e. one per each engine) then the _exact_
same thing is possible in Shredder GUI.  Which was what I thought I was
answering to.
