Quick question on XP Media Center

[SLJ_1337Dude]

Ok, I haven't really been around as of late, so I don't know much on this newfangled XP Media, so, I do remember that you had to get XP Pro if you wanted dual processors.

Here is the situation
My friend is building a system, and she is getting a Pentium D, so, correct me if I'm incorrect (all I know about the Pentium-D is that it's a dual-core processor, thats how out of things I am), but, wouldn't you have to get XP Pro, instead of Media Center, because it would recognize the Pentium-D as 2 processors?

So, summarized
1. Does XP Media Center support dual processors?
2. Does the Pentium-D register as 2 processors?

And, one last question, is the Pentium-D hyperthreaded (meaning 4 virtual processors)?
