Are there any laptops out there that support hardware virtualization support
out of the box?

Thanks

If you mean Intel Virtualization Technology, you can get a list of those
processors at

<http://processorfinder.intel.com>

I have an IBM Thinkpad R61 here that has a T7250 (2GHz) Core 2 Duo
Mobile CPU, this supports VT.

In the F1-key BIOS configuration under Config->CPU-> there is a setting
to enable or disable this technology - it comes disabled as default.

Virtualisation allows multiple computer environments (operating systems,
data and applications) all to be consolidated onto a reduced count of
machine hardware. One machine pretending to be many etc...
