He said my best bet was to ensure the CPU could handle virtualization, that is, it was VT- enabled. To check this, read the box the CPU comes in. Look for the word virtualization. I checked prices at OEM express (prices are rounded and in $CAD): Antec Sonata II w/smartpower 2.0 450w - $110 ASUS M2N-E AM2 PCI-e GBLan SATA - $115 AMD Athlon64 3800+ (2.4Ghz) 640Kb AM2 - $130 2x DDR400 PC3200 1GB Azen RAM - @$110 = $220 So for about $650 including taxes, you've got a decent beefy system. HDD not included (I have plenty of HDD here so I wasn't pricing them). The AMD Athlon64 X2 3800+ Dual Core AM2 is just $20 more, but I was unsure as to whether or not a dual core would be an advantage under XEN, but for $20 more, what a deal! He figured this was my best bet for getting FreeBSD installed and running as guests.

It looks very nice just out of the shipping box, but it doesn't keep well - the glossy finish on the steel parts scratches very easily, and the plastic parts look and feel like cheap, chunky plastic.

I would expect much better performance from a dual core CPU than from a single core CPU, at least if you have multiple virtual machines running concurrently.

The VT/Pacifica stuff is not specifically needed unless you need to generally be able run unaltered kernels as DomU's (eg. Windows). In AMD land you're guaranteed to have the necessary VT stuff with any AM2 socket CPU (AMD has stated this). With Intel CPU's that have that functionality you'll need to make sure the BIOS of the motherboard knows how to flip the VT stuff on at power on (the AMD chips don't need it specifically enabled at boot).
