Hmm, correct: some Atoms from the less common Z series do support VT.
Sheesh even Intel managed to confuse me :-)

Pentium D: Arnd and I were both talking about models "that are not
being obviously phased out". Pentium D is based on the NetBurst
microarch. None of the currently sold Core microarch-based Pentiums
support VT (which is why Arnd's post that said some did support VT
made me raise an eyebrow as this is clearly wrong).

Celeron: Arnd correctly pointed out that out of the hundreds of
Celeron models, only 1 mobile one supports VT: Celeron 900
(interesting find).
