I am certainly no expert in this subject, but I have a question about ALL i3, i5, i7 processors supporting what is needed for the Windows Phone 8 emulator. If you are setting up a new machine (as I am) do we need to know more from Microsoft NOW as to what the requirements are?
For example, the i7 3770 supports VT-d and the i7 3770K does not. As I understand it, this is a key property. Can someone with more knowledge than I comment on this? If I had posted this a little earlier I could have been much more informative, but, unfortunately, my brain isn't what it was about 30 minutes ago!
