P7450 - 2.13GHz 3MB 1066MHz FSB 45nm 25-watt withOUT Intel Virtualization
Technology (VT) - needed for W7's XP Mode, or Windows Virtual PC in W7 at
all.

P8400 - 2.26GHz 3MB 1066MHz FSB 45nm 25-watt with Intel VT.

So the P8400 has 130MHz and Intel VT over the P7450. I hate that Intel uses
VT as a product differentiation point. With W7's XPM, they've been forced to
go back and re-add it to a number of their more popular mainstream business
offerings as a new stepping, further confusing the issue. (No steppings of
the P7450 have VT though.)

Is there much of a difference between a P7450 and P8400?
