The fact that it only utilizes one processor does not mean it monopolizes
that processor. In any case the T60 is dual core and you should not be
seeing more than 50% utilization due to the guest (100% of one core is 50%
of the cpu). There are a couple of settings you can change under the
Virtual PC options (File menu/Options/Performance on the Virtual PC
console). If the VPC console is minimized, right click on the icon in the
notification area and select Show VPC Console then select the File Menu.
