Until about a month ago, the PIIIs themselves weren't "officially"
labeled SMP compliant. I guess only the Xeons were??? Since
the Celerons are now based on the PIII core they may unofficially
be officially SMP compliant. (what levels of SMP compliancy, I don't
remember).
I asked the AMD support people if the Athlon/Duron was SMP capable.
They said yes it was. The only problem is no shipping motherboards,
yet. According to them, some MB manufacturers (names not given of
course),
are working on boards right now. They gave no indication of when
announcements/release would occur. (usual legal mumbo-jumbo about
forward looking statements etc...)
