 Hi there,

  We're looking on buying a new SMP machine for testing/fixing our
kernel extensions
to be 'SMP compliant'. For that we'd like a non-SMP-problematic machine,
known
to work well with the actual SMP implementation.

   After a little bit of digging I came up with 2/3 possible choices:

   1- A Supermicro P6DGU based box (2xP3,440GX, 7890 Ultra2). This seems
to be
      a board that works fine as far as the list archives.
	
   2- A DELL poweredge 1300 (440BX based) or 2300 (440GX based) , (2xP3,
Ultra2 LVD)
      I have no clue on how the system behaves on SMP ( from the
archives, it seems 
that it worked fine in uniprocessor mode about a year ago...)

   Since it is mainly for SMP testing and I want to minimize the
possible hw problems, 
I'd really appreciate any comments from anyone that knows or it's using
any of them 
with an SMP kernel.

  Thanks,

   J.
