No, you just need multi-core CPU.
If you have quad core CPU, you can run 4 jobs simultaneously 
(over 4 jobs possible, but the run time will be needed more) in the multiple command terminals.

Best regard!

Subject : [Freesurfer] dual boot OS

Hello,
 
A quick question, if I wanted to run simultaneous recon-all jobs, would I have to install Linux as a dual boot operating system as opposed to what I currently have, which is an emulator?
 
Thanks,
Fatima
