"dmesg | grep -i apic" yields nothing, wihtout adding apic=off to my boot 
command line, so I assume I have successfully disabled it in my kernel.

One other thing: I do have an NVIDIA card (w/ the latest drivers).  The card 
is old, and DOES have a known problem, in that sometimes a small region on 
the screen gets funny tints.  I do plan on replacing this, anyway, but does 
anyone think this would be the cause ?
