Well, I think that even if Windows itself can run unmodified, there'd
still need to be a virtual BIOS, virtual VGA device, virtual IDE
controller, virtual NIC device, etc. They'd need to be emulations of
real devices, at least they'd have to be availabe until drivers can be
loaded (and written, of course) for Windows that can take over and
bypass the emulated devices. So the support for Intel VT/AMD Pacifica is
just the first step of many, really.
