I have look a bit in to it, (for my home computer) 

What i found was the there are two definite between Intel and AMD when it
comes to virtualization (sorry I lost the URL for the info)

What I found out was that AMD-V was all hardware but Intel-VT still has 2
things that was software emulate

You can get some info from
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X86_virtualization
