New AMD procs have the full virt capability too, but I am not sure which line of products it is available in.
Hope that helps some,

Hi Ian,
I am planing to play with HVM too, but I know they need some special
processor, for example Intel VT, I wonder what machine you are using for
HVM? could you recommend some machine? ( hope give me the detailed
model, type, machine name, etc, so that I can tell others what I want
when I borrow or buy.. )
Thanks for your any help,
Regards,
Henry
