This what AMD says about it...
The "this year" part is what I've heard.

www1.amd.com
"The AMD Athlon processor bus architecture is designed to support scalable multiprocessing. Multiprocessor workstation and server systems based on forthcoming AMD Athlon platforms are planned to become available. The number of AMD Athlon processors in a multiprocessor system is a function of chipset implementation, and not the AMD Athlon processor design. Forthcoming optimized chipsets are planned to enable multiprocessor system designs based on 2, 4, 8 or more AMD Athlon processors."

Tench - RE: "Right now, I only know of two chipsets which are due for this year, the 760 and the 770. If I recall correctly, 760 is single-processor, single-DDR, and 770 is dual-processor, dual-DDR."

Where did you read the 770 will have dual DDR channels?
