Bill, normally you are right on the money, but this time a little correction
is in order.

SCO MPX is the multiprocessor extension for SCO Unix System V/386 rel 3.2
and Open Desktop. SCO partnered with Corollary in Irvine, CA to implement
this. First done for the Z1000, it also runs on the Compaq Systempro,
Mitac 500, apricot MC486 and Corollary 386/smp and 486/smp. Other
vendors to come.

I don't want this to turn into an ad, if the consensus of the net is that
more detail are desired, I can post them. Anyone who wants can get our
technical background paper from their local SCO Authorized Reseller or
by emailing a request to sco!info.
