What hardware is out there that will run the Symmetric
Multi-Processing version of OS/2?  Is there anything that can take
more than 2 CPU's (4 would be nice)?  

Are there any compatibility or other issues that we should be aware
of?  Thanks for any help.

SMP hardware vendors listed in the "OS/2 Hardware Compatability List" include:
 ALR, AST, Compaq, Everex, Hewlett-Packard, Tricord & Wyse

I have also seen Vtech mentioned.

Some Pentium chips (supposedly one of the 100Mhz revisions fixing the
floating point problem) have a bug which affects MP performance.
