“About:
veeDee-Eyes.com was created to provide users with complete, functional Open Source Virtual Computers.
We download the distribution ISOs. Try and follow the installation instructions. We attempt to install the VirtualBox Guest Additions. VirtualBox VDIs that have the Guest Additions installed are noted on the VDI page.

Build Notes:
Unless noted in the “Build Notes” there are

• No additional packages added.
• No update performed.
• Only default options are used when ever possible

The goal is to create a CLEAN virtual computer. You get exactly what the creators of the “Operating System” designed in a STANDARD installation. From there you can make it your own.”

To use these VDI files you just need to do the following:

1. install VirtualBox
2. unzip the download
3. unrar the .vdi file
4. save the .vdi to a location where it will be run from
5. create a new virtual machine in VirtualBox and attach the .vdi
6. start the VirtualBox VM

Not quite a Virtual Appliance Marketplace, but it can be a time saver none the less.
