Uh, that post in another forum was wrong. Many, many Autodesk products are multi-threaded and will use all available cores, including Showcase.
If you happen to have multiple cores and Showcase, certain aspects (like ray tracing) will use all the cpu power you have to spare. I regularly see all 8 cores on my workstation chugging away when in RT mode in Showcase 2010 or 2011! (And they free up when my RT quality level is achieved!) When it comes to other aspects of the app (hardware shaded mode, animation, etc.) there are sometimes few, if any, benefits from multithreading the commands.
