Hi I'd like to ask this:

My computer processor(s) don't seem to be recognized ok, Maybe BOINC handles the processor numbering differently but:

BOINC states:
8 AuthenticAMD Quad-Core AMD Opteron 2376
[AMD Family 16 Model 4 Stepping 2]
BOINC states:
Processor features:
fpu tsc pae nx sse sse2 pni

When I check this It is not correct,
CPU diag programs and AMD state this is a
Family F Model 4 Extension 2
Extended Family 10 Extended Model 4 Revision RB-C2
Instructionsets are: MMX(+), 3DNow!(+), SSE, SSE2, SSE3, SSE4a, x86-64

Maybe you could explain why?

This is a relatively new Opteron; Shanghai-line followup to the Barcelona-line

I'm just wondering

Note to myself:
F is also a number in Hex (=15) since computers se 0 as a valid part of line numbering F could mean family 16

It's always the simple stuff that gets you when your mind wonders ..... ;)
