Oddly enough, the guy is right.  We don't ship an SMP kernel with 8.0 . . .
we ship two of them!

ncftp ...en/os/i386/RedHat/RPMS > ls kernel-smp*
kernel-smp-2.4.18-14.athlon.rpm
kernel-smp-2.4.18-14.i686.rpm

Those look like SMP kernels to me, so I would be very interested in hearing
why he thinks we don't.
