But modern SMP NT boxen can only multiprocess if the task is
especially adjusted for it. Apparently, NT itself will not take
advantage of the second processor, unless the app (e.g. Photoshop)
has the featuer. Is this always the case, or different in other
systems?

You could do more than four, it took a little more work as the simple
parts to do it were roll your own and it was pretty impressive.
later on NCR would have a box with 4 486/50s and it could wail.
