cpuinfo, bogomips and duo core

Do I have this right?

since on a duo core system, /proc/cpuinfo reports both cores and a 
bogomips number for each, that number is the value for a core.  Thus 'in 
theory' the bogomips for the unit is the sum of the two values (the same 
in every duo core I have seen).


This 'new' HP DC7600 that I picked up on ebay is reporting 6000 bogomips 
per core which is the fastest I have gotten.  But then I always do for 
used systems on ebay, and I limit myself to cheap SSF, as I only have 
13.5" on my rack shelf for systems...
