The latter is the FreeBSD-SMP mailing list <freebsd-smp@freebsd.org> Run: echo "subscribe freebsd-smp" | mail majordomo@freebsd.org to join the list Basically they are working on boards & systems that support the Intel MP spec, and not a propriatary solution. The only processors being supported right now are Intel P5's and P6's to the best of my knowledge. Gary
