title: Android tools r17 x86 emulator - why can't I create an x86 AVD?
body: <p>I've installed the new tools without problems. I've installed the Intel HAXM. I've verified (with <code>sc query intelhaxm</code>) that the Intel service is running. I've also confirmed the machine (a Lenovo ThinkCentre) supports Intel Virtualization Technology.</p>
  
  <p>So why in the AVD Manager is the CPU/ABI field fixed at ARM for every single platform version of Android?</p>
