I have been experimenting with my MacBook Air with Virtualbox 3.2 installed.
I have discovered a neat way to answer
http://bugs.sugarlabs.org/ticket/598:
> Another suggestion: Put the individual Student's Virtual Machine
> Appliance on a their USB stick and open it from the Mac or Windoz
> machine running VMplayer or Virtualbox.( Note that USB sticks are
> about 10x slower than HD install.) Then the student can open it on any
> machine at home or school. Plus the Appliance can be copied (or
> exported in Latest Virtualbox) from the stick for a backup.
Please look at:

This wiki page also investigates making a 4 GB live USB of
F14-desktop-live with Virtualbox3.2 pre installed, that runs various
students Soas files from a personalized 2nd USB.
