[jira] [Comment Edited] (VCL-833) Improve consistency and grammar
of website
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VCL-833?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14358903#comment-14358903 ]

---------------------------------------------------------
*Manage Computers* > *Edit Computer*
*_No. Cores_* --> *_Processors_*
_or_
*_No. Cores_* --> *_Logical Processors_*
I don't like using abbreviations when there is space to spell things out. Some people may not know what they mean and I would assume there may be some difficulty translating them.
This particular setting is particularly difficult to explain exactly what it should refer to -- cores, sockets, logical processors. For VM hosts, logical processors is the most useful metric. However, this adds complexity when trying to explain it to someone who knows they have x number of "processors" with y cores each. Thoughts?
Whatever this is changed to, the corresponding image option should match.
