Entering Virtual Age
Technology will allow separate operating systems to run on the same PC
Sunday, January 23, 2005 by Black Xero | Discussion: WinCustomize News
Vanderpool Technology, or VT, is part of Intel's new strategy to provide users with benefits other than performance increases. VT will allow users to create virtual environments on their PCs in order to run separate operating systems on the same PC and it would also permit IT managers to upload patches or upgrades to one portion of the PC while the user runs their work applications on another environment.
Intel will build support for VT into the chipsets it plans release around the middle of 2005, but hadn't planned to activate that technology in processors until 2006, around the time Microsoft is expected to release its long-awaited update to the Windows XP operating system, code-named Longhorn. At last September's Intel Developer Forum, President and Chief Operating Officer Paul Otellini said that VT would not become a mainstream technology until operating system support was available.

Atlast a comment. Paxx you are right. Different Os' being used by Different Users. Like if you and your mat can use one system ... to run two different OS' at the same time. I might not explain it though cause I am getting late from office. So will try for an indepth article on it.

Yes, Black Xero, if you could explain a bit more in an in depth article would be interesting. I'd like to know more about this. If, at last, I could run Linux when I'm just casually using my computer, then instantly switch to Windows when I need to work (Photoshop, Flash) or play games without having to reboot, that would be such an amazing long-waited possibility.
