Yes – NT 3.5 DOES support multiprocessing. But, the individual application software packages still have to be properly compiled to take advantage of that feature of the OS. Otherwise, the only multiprocessing that will occur is in operations that are strictly within the domain of the OS. This has been discussed in this forum several times, and was also addressed in this month's edition of PC Graphics and Video. Gary Y. and Co. probably will produce a version that will take advantage of SMP – but they haven't promised anything or given any time frame.
