I don't know much about the Linux kernels. I'm not even sure what the kernel numbers are for each version of Ubuntu. I can try to look that up on wikipedia. I guess Linux is ready to take advantage of multiple cores. What about Mac and Windoze?


Pretty much all the newest OS's on any platform or type all handle multiple-core/multi-threading in one way or another.  Another consideration these days is 32 vs 64-bit OS support, but they all have that too.  Mainly for being able to add and properly address massive amounts of RAM...
