Hi,
Sorry if this has been covered before but I couldn't see anything in 
the archives or the user manual. My first attempt to port a virtual 
machine from one Linux host to another by tarring up the contents of
.VirtualBox and copying the resulting tar file across and untarring it 
was successful but are there any gotchas I should be aware of? Is this 
the way to do it or are there better ways? Is this supported at all?

I'm looking at this as a means of providing access to Microsoft Office 
for staff members who prefer to have a Linux desktop machine. Wine 
doesn't seem to work, CrossOver Linux works but costs (and Access 
doesn't work at the moment) but I'm really impressed by the usability 
and speed of VirtualBox. Is there any other way of doing this that 
I've overlooked?
