    SMP is a feature already listed for the current MorphOS kernel (Quark), which (obviously) also runs on the X5000 (plus on PowerMac G4/G5).

    "MorphOS kernel is named Quark and offers the functionality for services like MP, SMP and VM."

    Has this SMP of Quark ever been tried or even put to use (outside ABox, of course)? If so, on which hardware?
