Have all of the issues since been resolved? Now that Tyan has the TigerMP motherboard out for around $200, and the 1.2 GHz Athlon MP chips are around $160, building a multiprocessor system is looking like a better and better idea. However, I wanted to first make sure that there are no problems that I should be aware of. Thanks! -- Paul A.
