Network Rendering & Core 2 Duo

First Question: Does Vegas 7.0 still allow network rendering?

If so, it used to be that in order to take advantage of Hyperthreading on a P4, you installed a second copy of Vegas (oversimplifying the process) which would then be used as one of your network rendering processors.

Second related question: Do you have to make a similar setup to take advantage of both core 2 duo processors, in order to truly gain the multitasking (parallel processing) power of Vegas?

Any help on that would be helpful.

It automatically uses both cores yet still allows you to network render on another machine, single or multi-core.

Thank you! I was not needing the network render yet because my machine been rendering with mainconcept mpg at about twice the realtime speed. This was at least a 4X improvement over my previous arrangement. Now I want more !!!
