Milo, I certainly liked this part of the Prestonia review:

The performance advantages of hyperthreading are undeniable. Our tests of a hyperthreading-enabled Intel Xeon DP server showed, on average, a 45.71 percent increase in SQL transaction performance and a 31.13 percent increase in three-tier Web application performance, versus the same system with hyperthreading disabled.

So HyperThreading is awesome for server apps but crappy for desktop apps. Seems like Intel did the right thing activating HyperThreading only for Xeon.
