From the system requirements:

PowerPC® processor (multiprocessor G4 recommended)
so... one would tend to assume that it is MP aware

Thanks for the detective work.

I was going to go over the specs more carefully, but I've spent so much effort just waiting for MP support, I was too tired to read anymore.

For the record, I think AE rocks. Lack of MP support is (was) my only gripe.

Combustion's the more professional, and IMO, the far better product, but After effects is probably used more in facilites.
Combustion has the benefit of getting advanced features ported down to it from its higher end cousins, like Inferno and Flame; the keyer and colour correction tools just being 2 of them
I prefer Combustion compared to AE, but try them both out adn see waht you think.
