} What product is this? I haven't seen anything in my SCO price lists or
} other info that says they have a multiple CPU product. I remember seeing
} a press release that said they were working on a multiprocessor
} implementation along with a couple of other companies.

It was announced at the Las Vegas COMDEX in conjunction with the PC
manufacturers that have released their multi-processor PC's (if you can
call them PC's anymore...).  

Right now i think they only have 2 processor Machines, but they were talking
about having 16 processor 386's (and 486's).  

All I can say is this kinda stuff makes me drool :-)
