Did I read that somewhere? I can create a Vbox at home and maybe put the .vdi on a USB drive, take it somewhere and run it in a different host?
Thanks
Virtual boxs are portable?

Yes, but don't expect it to be lightning fast

Re: Virtual boxs are portable?
In principle it is doable, but there are no guarantees that it will be problem free. In practice you often have to fix minor problems (e.g. a network card being bridged to exists on one PC but is named differently on the other): and be aware that Windows activation may kick in if the CPU changes.
