I have not done it myself. But the program isn't bad. The real body composition changes will come if you follow the diet plan. Its a fairly aggressive meal plan.
The work outs themselves consist of a lot of body weight and circuit or interval or HIIT or whatever you want to call it. Basically moving from exercise to exercise keeping your heart rate and intensity up.
Its a pretty solid program overall.
On a side note, the best most comprehensive diet plan I've ever run across is the book the ABS Power Diet by Men's Health magazine's editor and chief. Might be worth a read if you're interested in making some lifestyle changes.

What are you trying to accomplish? Weight loss? Toning?
She-Hulk stunt double?
I have the program but never tried it. Getting my diet under control is the problem (skips breakfast, gummi worms and coffee for lunch). But I weigh 145lbs and am deceptively strong thanks to work. So my purpose for p90x would be general exercise / cardio.
And for that I have a puppy

I had to cut a good bit of weight, I finished highschool wrestling at 160. I wrastled in college too, but I was mostly a practice dummy. D1 school though so thats something I guess.

P90x is fine for the average person who wants to drops a few pounds. lower their body fat and increase their cardio.
Not the greatest for someone who wants to gain some mass.
