Well, I had THOUGHT that running with just one CPU defined in VirtualBox
was a fix for me, but apparently, it is not.  While it is a huge
improvement over defining 2 CPU's, once I try to do anything that needs
a little horse-power, everything goes down hill.  Today, I was testing a
PowerPoint presentation because I'm guest lecturing next week and have
no choice but to use the university's computers with MS PowerPoint 2007
-- which I have installed in my XP VM.  I use some embedded videos.  My
virtualized XP became painfully slow and was barely responsive.  I
couldn't finish testing the presentation until I got to my office later
in the morning, completely defeating the purpose of having VirtualBox at
all.  VERY disappointing.
