Dual Proc Support?

Quote from a "techzone" article on XP



<< One point to get out of the way initially, because I know people are going to ask about it, is that the Personal Edition WILL NOT support SMP (symmetric multi processing.... i.e. dual/quad ect CPU configurations). SMP support will be reserved for the Professional and Advanced Server versions of XP. Personal is designed to replace Windows Millineum as the consumer operating system of choice, and as such doesnt really need SMP. >>

Well, that stinks. WinME was never my OS of choice and, as a consumer, I prefer to dual boot [Win98SE and Win2000].

Last time I checked, MS wants a lot of money for the Professionl and Advanced Server versions - over $500. Sorry, but this is too pricey for just an OS.
