If you are going with Intel then make jolly sure to read the small type before committing. I assumed the quad core Q8200 I purchased a couple years back would have VT-x support (quad core Intel CPU, c.2009 right?), but incredibly it doesn't. One of the reasons I buy AMD now (okay, no AMD support for KVM on OpenIndiana yet), these sort marketing tricks are a complete pain in the butt.

Cheers,
