There's no single object inside a machine model. Of = course you can expose MP IDs of CPU objects as properties and set them, = but isn't it more difficult than just changing one global before setting = things up? But, OK, this is just a MHO, and generally i don't object. If you think = that your suggestion is architecturally better, do it.
