Symantec picks away at Vista's core

X86 Only?: The PDF implies that Vista is X86 architecture which means it will not be appropriate for the dual multicore chips. Intel isn't even making X86 chips anymore so what is Vista going to be good for? Xbox? FUD indeed. Lets have someone in the know tell us that this is not so. Please!

On a positive note the new Vitualization software is listing Vista as an OS that can run in a Virtual Machine. Hypervisor software is another security feature that can potentially eliminate the problems with falting to X86 hardware for bad juju.
