smoking something really mind altering, and I think you should share it.
x86 virtualization is about basically placing another nearly full kernel,
full of new bugs, on top of a nasty x86 architecture which barely has
correct page protection. Then running your operating system on the other
side of this brand new pile of shit. You are absolutely deluded, if not
stupid, if you think that a worldwide collection of software engineers who
can't write operating systems or applications without security holes, can
then turn around and suddenly write virtualization layers without security
holes. You've seen something on the shelf, and it has all sorts of pretty
colours, and you've bought it. That's all x86 virtualization is.
