"Virtual" fine print on non-support for Intel VT CPU feature .. felt cheated by Sony
Now you see it - http://www.sony.com.sg/product/vgn-z26gn (specification tab) Now you don't - http://www.sony.com.sg/microsite/vaio/products/vaio_z/product.html (my research and compared against Intel P8600 specs)
Small, update, as you can see here: http://blog.durdle.com/archives/2008/09/03/sony-vaio-z-disabled-vt-virtualization-technology/ I am not the only one having this issue.
I found out that there is a way to work around this issue by editing NVRAM (CMOS) but the problem is that I don't know the right NVRAM token for my notebook model and BIOS version. If someone can get that information for me I would be gratefull.
EDIT: Unfortunately this works for Phoenix BIOS, not for AMI BIOS which I have. Back to square one.
