I have had great luck with dual Intel machines and RedHat.
Just select the SMP kernel during install and it is pretty painless.

I am running two dual machines now. Both have Abit mobos.
One for Celerons and one for Pentiums. Both very flexible,
read - overclockable.

I've been itching to try one of the new dual Athlon MP mobos.
They've gotten some good press of late.

My experience is that SMP really makes Linux multitasking
shine brightly.
