Those are the two reasons why I keep my virtualization laptop for work 
travel always an Athlon 64X2 based one.
Because buying the Intel one having the risk of either the processor 
does not support VT-x or there is no option to enable it in the BIOS.

However I consider myself quite lucky when I was given a Fujitsu S6520. 
Initially it cannot enable the BIOS, but after BIOS upgrade, then I can 
enable the VT-x.
