One thing I&#x27;ve really hated about Intel in recent times has been that you can&#x27;t really tell what you&#x27;re getting based on the model number.<p>I got bitten by this when I built up a system and picked a Core 2 Quad Q8200, only to discover after powering it on that it did NOT have virtualization support.<p>The problem is only worse now; is that i7-xxxx dual-core or quad-core? Should I get i5-yyyy instead?
