Yes, it is using the APIC. You can see that by the "LOC" line. Also
you have IO-APIC as seen by IO-APIC-level/edge. Btw level interrupts
can be shared. While it's annoying to see stuff share, i don't think
it really matters much. My boxen share IRQs even though I have plenty
of free interrupts. Sometimes you can ask the bios to reassign things.

I have an ASUS A7M266D. It's a dual board with AMD chipset, but yours
might be similar. I had to use MPS v1.4 to get it to map high IRQs.
I've got an old quad ppro and it never uses high IRQs.

Yes you have both IO-APIC and local APIC!
