Windows Virtual PC?

Does Windows Virtual PC handle OVA files? It is absent from the list. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.70.67.226 (talk) 17:28, 16 June 2011 (UTC) Because it doesn't. Duh. 68.70.67.226 (talk) 18:07, 16 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Disk formats

"various formats are supported"

I couldn't find anything in the spec that would enforce interoperability on the disk image level.

5.2 Virtual Disk Formats

OVF does not require any specific disk format to be used, but to comply with this specification the disk format shall be given by a URI which identifies an unencumbered specification on how to interpret the

disk format.
