One change that might happen though -- there are newer CPUs that
have (or will have soon) NX capability, but aren't SMP.
(VIA have a chip ready, Intel are alleged to be putting NX in their
next line of laptop processors, probably AMD too).
Actually, the socket 754 AMD Semprons appear to be in this category too:
they support NX and are 32-bit. These appear to be all mobile Semprons
and desktop chips with model numbers >=3100+. And they are shipping,
most likely in significantly higher quantity than the VIA processors.
