I used to have precision 490 for my personal workstation for my previous job loaded with 2 x quad core Intel E5400 series and come with 16GB of Memory and 2 x 750 GB SATA Drive. I even run more than 8 VM in the same machine without hitting to performance issue and each of the vm are running with 2 GB of memory as minimum. base OS could be vista, windows 7, XP or even the ESX hypervisor I think this is a never ending story depend what machine you are running and how you configure the VM on it.

With your AMD8450 I presume it is a full blown Desktop PC. I do have another setup using a Shuttle SX58H7 also out perform the Fusion on MacBook Pro. Just wonder whether you have it running on another notebook with similar spec you will get that kind of juice from it. Cruzertech,

AMD 8450 3.5GB RAM shared with IGP 500GB Seagate Hardisk all running stable. tested for a few days while my windows 7 ultimate running other downloading program. ” This beast is really value for $$$.
