Jared,
Those were interesting links on virtualization. Your comment
"As was suggested, you can run a full virtualization hypervisor, i.e.
VirtualBox, which is basically a layer of software that acts like hardware
with or without a CPU that has Intel VT-x or AMD-V CPU virtualization
extensions. "
would seem to be true for VirtualBox and VMWare per the the link
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Full_virtualization
My question is if I am using VirtualBox aor VMWare player, would there be a
performance advantage to upgrading to a machine which specifically supports
Intel VT-x or AMD-V CPU virtualization extensions?
