I wonder what sorts of "enhancements" could conceivably be necessary for a professor to implement a perfectly reasonable operating systems research project? The only person I know who has currently done any sort of hacking on SMP is Jack Vogel <jackv@freebsd.org>, but be also warned that Mr. Vogel is firmly governed by the laws of Heisenberg: You can plot his position or you can plot his velocity, but you can never derive them both simultaneously! :-) Jordan
