I believe MP = MultiProcessor

This is modified version of Palomino (Athlon 4) core, with few additions which should boost it's performace in SMP environment up to 20% when comparing to Thunderbird core processors running in same machine.

and Here (http://www.tyan.com/products/html/thunderk7.html) is the first motherboard out to support the new SMP platform. The dual cpu mobos arent restricted to just the Palomino's either, you can use standard durons or athlons too.
