Yes..It would have been a nice touch to have! It truely would have made it a great multimedia OS to have SMP as it makes quick work of video editing and such!

how hard is it to make these OS SMP ready?

VERY hard, from what I understand. There is no real point at the moment anyway because most everyday apps that would be used by WinME buyers are single-threaded anyway - take Office for example. Not everything benefits under NT from its SMP support. Applications have to be totally rewritten for SMP I think.
