Re: Multiprocessor features in Cx6x86

  The 686 will not work as a dual.  The reason why the 686 will not  work
  as a dual is that  so far the boards available are not using Openpic
  specs they are using Intel's APIC specs.  Openpic is a symmetric
  multiprocessors (SMP) spec supporting up to 32 processors, co developded
  by Cyrix & AMD, W/input form industry leaders like Compaq and IBM.  It
  supports all x86 processors whereas APIC only supports Intel's It allows
  system vendors the freedom to choose which CPU they desire in Multi
  processor systems. For more info on OpenPic please chk out our home page,
  Cyrix.com.
