Yes, but I would think that one of the main reasons for buying a Toshiba laptop
with OpenSolaris pre-installed is to run a software stack that draws heavily
from Sun's F.O.S.S. offerings, and probably the fourth most widely used piece
of multi-platform Sun free open source software (after Java, MySQL, and
OpenOffice) is VirtualBox, and I think it's safe to assume that most users are
going to enable virtualization in the BIOS so that they can get better
performance from their VirtualBox virtual machines. ....
The bugs are being worked on so this isn't a permanent
state of affairs. While not an ideal environment, 32 bit guest
OSes work fine under VirtualBox without hardware virtualization
enabled.
