Joe, yep. That and a lot of marketing. :) It's the equivalent of existing 2S workstation boards, except you can use unbuffered memory.

I think what the vast majority has missed is probably the ultimate flexibility of this extra socket...its sort of looking at un-lit fireworks....not impressive until you set it off...;>)

"Is it just 2 socket system with dual core that can go to each?"

So far, that seems to be the case. The only surprise seems to be that AM2 supports this, instead of being server/workstation only.

Actually, for a gamer, an interesting aspect is to get a fast-clocked single core with a motherboard like this. Then, when more games support dual core, buy a second.
