You don't need Parallel Query to take advantage of a second CPU.

Running Oracle 7.3.4 on NT with 4 processors, we were seeing new user connection threads scheduled to the least busy processor. The core instance process threads will not take advantage of the 2nd CPU (they all reside on one), but your connections will at least spread out, possibly giving the cpu with oracle threads on it more bandwidth.
