I would like to add it to my unicorn and Pegasus collection.

maybe a kickstart to buy the code? [like blender?]

really can't think of us getting screwed you've never gotten a laptop with a VT compatible CPU and the option is disabled in bios...
well just go in a turn it on....

OH WAIT.... THERE IS NO MENU OPTION TO TURN IT BACK ON.... so someone must hack the bios to turn it on...

yes i am using a laptop with just such an issue(never dreamed to check that before buying the laptop)

geek paranoia is because we've been screwed over and over...

and if it's not paranoia it's let's keep watch and make sure it does not happen...

but please explain why how VT option is not an option on some laptops... some OEM decided that i should not be able to run VM's(with cpu acceleration) on my laptop?
