I just noticed a preference pane for "Processor" in the "Other" section of my system preferences... what is it for?

and, what does NAP mean? I tried checking the show control in menubar box, but it does nothing.

here's a screenshot of what I have:
MacBook Pro | 2.16 ghz core2duo | 2gb ram | superdrive | airport extreme
iBook G4 | 1.2ghz | 768mb ram | combodrive | airport extreme
iPhone 3GS | 32 GB | Jailbreak, or no Jailbreak

Do you have the Apple CHUD Tools installed? That is what put the processor pane in System Preferences for you.

"NAP" is a power saving mode in referece to the processor.

hmm, yes I do have the CHUD tools installed. I installed XCode a few weeks ago, and then never went back to use it due to lack of free time.

thanks for the help.

Nap is somewhere between awake and asleep.
