I'll probably be getting a new laptop soon, and I figured if I could get one
that could do virtualization, that would be a plus. I know Intel has a web
page set up that identifies which processors have their VT technology. But
I can't find a similar page for AMD. Wikipedia says "AMD-V is present in
all K8 AMD (Athlon 64) <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Athlon_64> processors
from stepping "F" and all newer processors support AMD-V technology." Most
AMD based laptops come with the Turion processor. Since I couldn't find
anything on AMD's website regarding AMD-V and the Turion, I turned to
Newegg. Newegg lists "Virtualization Technology Support" as a no for the
Turion.
