VirtualBox 2.2 freezes during the import of the appliance. The readme.txt should probably mention that VirtualBox >= 3.0 is needed.

It would be nice if the jsmath fonts where installed in the virtual machine. -- Wilfried William Stein schrieb: > Hello, > > Despite sage_vmware-*.zip being bar far the most popular Sage > download, we will not be distributing Sage as a vmware image anymore. > Over the weekend I created a Sage distribution aimed at Windows users > based on "puppy Linux" using Virtual Box: > > http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/wstein/binaries/sage_vbox-4.1.2.zip > > It's a 659MB download.
