At 7 or 8 years old, it might just have hardware virtualization if it was one of the very leading edge development machines (like an Intel SVP) at the time it was released, but it's highly unlikely. You can find out if your hardware supports virtualization by following this guide I wrote: http://virt-tools.org/learning/check-hardware-virt/ You can still use qemu. Or Xen paravirtualization (certain Linux guests only). Rich. -- Richard Jones, Virtualization Group, Red Hat http://people.redhat.com/~rjones libguestfs lets you edit virtual machines.
