New OS install, old guest OS

Hi,

Coming from VMWare I am used to just leaving my virtual machines in its location, and if I have to reinstall my OS or change computer I just open existing virtual hard disks in newly installed VMWare Workstation. I have been looking at Virtual Box, but I don't see how to do the same here. And also since I'm looking to possibility of changing to Virtual Box, how can I import VHD from VMWare Workstation?

Create a new guest and point to the existing images. VBOX works with vdi, vmdk and vhd-images.

Or export/import an OVF appliance.
