    Could anybody tell me what's the difference between these two processors?

    In new X61 model, the price is huge different.

    Intel Core™ 2 Duo T7500 (2.2GHz, 4MB L2, 800MHz FSB)
    Intel Core™ 2 Duo T7500 NV (2.2GHz, 4MB L2, 800MHz FSB)


    I just called Lenovo, somebody told me it could be "normal voltage". What do you think?

    I think you are probably one or a hundred asking that question right now. I'm not sure anybody knows (yet!).

    Am I wrong or the system wrong ??? The price of the T7500 is cheaper than the T7300 when I config them...What is going here ? And is that processor only offered by Lenovo in the X series ?

    NV = No Virtualization.

    Correct. I've also seen another board say the same.

    It seems I forgot to answer the question. If the user is just an average user, I would recommend the NV processor. It is cheaper and chances are you will not be utilizing virtualization anyway.

    it seems that others on the thinkpad forums is stating that it is not "no virtulization" and it means "normal voltage"
