This is also happening on Lenovo Ideapads..

I recently purchased a Y-series ideapad and found that VT was also disabled, for no apparent reason, and that the BIOS were severely crippled.

I started a thread here and confirmed that it wasn't just me: http://forums.lenovo.com/lnv/board/message?board.id=ideaPad&thread.id=12068

I didn't realize having these features crippled was such a big deal(although it REALLY annoys me),big enough to make news. Is there any way I can contact The Reg to tell them about this as well?
