VMX used to be in silicon valley - 2115 O'Nel Dr. San Jose, CA 95131,
the company was aquired by Octel which was then acquired by Lucent.
I think their domain was vmx.net (now registered to address in Hong Kong).
VMX was run by Mr Berry who later started IP Communications (which ended its
operations in rather big dispute, but this is not related):
