hell Low.

I'm having a chance to dump my E8400 for a decent price,
so i need someone with one of those Intel CPUs:
i5-2390T
i5-2400
i5-2400S
i5-2500
i5-2500S
i5-2500T
or any of those ending with K (unlocked multiplier)
to check if CPU supports segmentation in long mode.
Basically i need to know if it supports 64bit virtualbox guest.
This can be checked by looking for VMX tag,
or by running http://goo.gl/zcedL from vmware (win and lin binaries there).
Intel's site is not crystal clear about that.
Thank You.
