Hey - as a spin off question -
prompted by this from Rod
> I run Linux SMP kernels so I'd be directly affected

I have seen single processor servers running SMP kernels
which I thought were for multiprocessors.   Why would you do that?
Is there any advantage/disadvantage to using the SMP kernel for single
processors?
