You just have to be careful to read motherboard reviews - just because
they support a chip that has VT, doesn't mean they support VT. It's
extremely frustrating to get a new server with VT-enabled chips to find
that 1.5 years after release, IBM still hasn't enabled it in the BIOS.
Grrrrr. (I've seen this happen on some consumer stuff too)
