I never said anything about a VMX file format, I was talking about VMC file Format, which was the Sun Virtualbox default hard drive configuration, or at least when Sun company had it. I know VMX and VMDK is for VMWare, and that they were/is still compatible with Virtualbox.
VMC is the file format, which the only virtual program that supports that now is the Microsoft Virtual PC, but the older version of Virtualbox, that I still have by the way, supports the VMC file.
