The truly amusing thing is that the current available games are single threaded.

If you have a single CPU then there is still only one thing happening at a time. The more time spent on manipulating operating system data, the less there is for manipulating the program (game) data. Now that AMD dual core processors are become more plentiful there may be a change in games to have different threads run on different parts of the core.
