Thanks folks. It's good to know this is not directly relevant anymore. Is VT-x one main reason things are better? I was actually looking at this from the perspective of implementing hardware simulation in software, unrelated directly to VMware. Essentially, I was grappling with the problem of how to do timekeeping in toy VMs. Looking at this gave me some insight into how to solve my problem (I think).
