Kovid,

First, thanks very much for your efforts to get calibre going with Snow Leopard. Working great now.

I have one question though (no too significant.) I have a Quad core Nehalem Mac Pro. Back under Leopard when I told calibre to download all subscriptions it would work on 8 at a time. I always thought this was because it was a hyperthreaded quad core and it made it look like an 8 core machine (works like that in Parallels). Anyway, since the SL "fix" I see it only trys to dload 3 news sources at a time. While this is certainly good enough I've wondered if this was intentional or just a byproduct of the way you had to fix it. On my core 2 duo Macbook Pro it always (and still) just grabs two news sources at a time.

Anyway, thanks again for the great work. Just curious!
