Re: the best virtual machine for Linux: qemu, kvm, xen, virtual box, parallels, vmwar

Thank you for your advice. My laptop (Lenovo T61) is running Windows 7 and has Intel Core 2 Duo T7500 processor. Do you by chance know if it supports KVM? And will Windows 7 behave better than Windows XP under Qemu?

Thanks again.
